I am what a romantic movie is to a profound thinker - a mere diversion, a comic interlude, something that is soon forgotten.
Anne Frank
Image
I... keep trying to find a way to become what I'd like to be and what I could be if... if only there were no other people in the world.

You must work and do good, not be lazy and gamble, if you wish to earn happiness. Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.
Anne Frank
Image
The world has plenty of room, riches, money and beauty ... Let us begin by dividing it more fairly.
Anne Frank
Image
How noble and good everyone could be if, every evening before falling asleep, they were to recall to their minds the events of the whole day and consider exactly what has been good and bad. Then without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day.
Anne Frank
Image
Crying can bring relief, as long as you don't cry alone.
Anne Frank
Image
Sometimes I'm so deeply buried under self-reproaches that I long for a word of comfort to help me dig myself out again.
Anne Frank
Image
Don't condemn me, remember rather that sometimes I, too, can reach the bursting point.
Anne Frank

Older people have formed their opinions about everything, and don't waver before they act. It's twice as hard for us young ones to hold our ground, and maintain our opinions, in a time when all ideals are being shattered and destroyed, when people are showing their worst side, and do not know whether to believe in truth and right and God.
