Werner Erhard: "Authenticity is being yourself in the presence of others."

You are enough in a world that profits from you believing you are not.

It’s all about falling in love with yourself and sharing that love with someone who appreciates you, rather than looking for love to compensate for a self love deficit.

You may think there is a lot wrong with you, but there is also a lot right with you.

I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.

You cannot travel back in time to fix your mistakes, but you can learn from them and forgive yourself for not knowing better.
