Marty Rubin

Loneliness is a failure to appreciate others.

The things that happen in the night are hidden even from the night.

May your wants be few and your pleasures many.

If you think happiness is a rare bird you won't see much of it.

All laughter is subversive, even the laughter of children.

Trust opens the door that pain had sealed shut.

To put one's career before one's personal life is like putting death before life.

Words without warmth are dead words.

To remain sane in a mad world is the true victory.

A poem is an event, like a wedding or birth.

We expect miracles from love but love has only itself to give.

The more idealism proves futile, the more I respect idealists.
