- A person who cannot trust anyone cannot be trusted.
- People protect themselves from being hurt in relationships by hurting their partners.
- The more we try to impress people, the less effective it will be.
- Success comes from failure.

- Learning is itself paradoxical, and the more we learn, the more we realize that we are not knowing much.
