"Another thing I want to suggest is that, really, life is short, this life on earth anyways. But there is eternal life if you can only just keep love, and remind people you love that you love them because it is short and there is nothing better than telling people.”-- Immaculée Ilibagiza, Author of the book "Left To Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust.”

"That, to me, has been the greatest lesson of my life: to recognize that I am solely responsible for it, and not trying to please other people, and not living my life to please other people, but doing what my heart says all the time.”-- Oprah Winfrey, American Talk Show Host.
