The best Quotes by Richard Bach

The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it.

Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.

True love stories never have endings.

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were.

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof.

Why are there so many Latina's in Illinois?
Because that's where the Chica go.

They say money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a flight to Illinois - and that's pretty much the same thing.

It takes much more courage to be in love than it does for war.

You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it. You say you love sun, but you seek shade when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes, you close your window. So that's why I'm scared when you say you love me.

The truth is, everyone is going to hurt you. You just got to find the ones worth suffering for.

Finding someone you love and who loves you back is a wonderful, wonderful feeling. But finding a true soul mate is an even better feeling. A soul mate is someone who understands you like no other, loves you like no other, will be there for you forever, no matter what. They say that nothing lasts forever, but I am a firm believer in the fact that for some, love lives on even after we're gone.

"How do you spell 'love'?" - "You don't spell it... you feel it."

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.
I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it when you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you.
Not even close,
not even a little bit,
not even at all!

Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.

Peeta: "I would love to stop this moment, here and now, and live in it forever."

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment, until it becomes a memory.

Calendars and clocks exist to measure time, but that signifies little because we all know that an hour can seem as eternity or pass in a flash, according to how we spend it.

Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.

What really counts are good endings, not flawed beginnings.

Often when you think you're at the end of something, you're at the beginning of something else.

Word to the wise writer: never underestimate your secondary characters! But watch them... they sneak off with stuff.

A story is a letter that the author writes to himself, to tell himself things that he would be unable to discover otherwise.

I want to tell a story that makes the reader always want to see what will happen next.

And it's a human need to be told stories. The more we're governed by idiots and have no control over our destinies, the more we need to tell stories to each other about who we are, why we are, where we come from, and what might be possible.

It's the way it works: Love plus time minus distance equals hate.

Our fingerprints don't fade from the lifes of those we touch.

At the end of the day, when it comes down to it, all we really want is to be close to somebody. So this thing where we all keep our distance and pretend not to care about each other, it's usually a load of bull. So we pick and choose who we want to remain close to, and once we've chosen those people, we tend to stick close by. No matter how much we hurt them.

Couples who are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but the big difference is they don't let it take them down.

You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you.

Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind, or forgotten.

I don't have friends, I have family.

Your laugh is the reason your parents never tickled you growing up.
