John Steinbeck

To be alive at all is to have scars.

What good is warmth without cold to give it sweetness?

I guess there are never enough books.

When two people meet, each one is changed by the other so you`ve got two new people.

No man really knows about other human beings. The best he can do is to suppose that they are like himself.

Try to understand men, if you understand each other you will be kind to each other. Knowing a man well never leads to hate and almost always leads to love.
