Ieyasu Tokugawa

Life is like unto a long journey with a heavy burden.

Forbearance is the root of quietness and assurance forever.

Let thy step be slow and steady, that thou stumble not.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault.

The greatest gift is a portion of thyself.
