You can build a prison of stone and steel, but you merely present the prisoner with a challenge. Any truly determined man will find a way out. But love, love is the perfect prison. Inescapable.

Problems are just opportunities that haven’t presented themselves.

Life is not a fairy tale. Not everyone deserves a happy ending.
