Quotes by Pearl S. Buck:

"The person who tries to live alone will not succeed as a human being. His heart withers if it does not answer another heart. His mind shrinks away if he hears only the echoes of his own thoughts and finds no other inspiration."
                         
"To serve is beautiful, but only if it is done with joy and a whole heart and a free mind."
                         
"Many people lose the small joys in the hope for the big happiness."
                         
"Love cannot be forced, love cannot be coaxed and teased. It comes out of heaven, unasked and unsought."
                        
"There are many ways of breaking a heart. Stories were full of hearts broken by love, but what really broke a heart was taking away its dream -- whatever that dream might be."
                    
"A good marriage is one which allows for change and growth in the individuals and in the way they express their love."




"Illicit drug trafficking is not a victimless crime. It inflicts profound harm on people and communities around the world while fuelling violence, crime and instability." 
                         — United Nations

"I abused alcohol and it abused me back.
            -- D.C. Hyden, "The Sober Addict"
