There are many things in your heart you can never tell to another person. They are you, your private joys and sorrows, and you can never tell them. You cheapen yourself, the inside of yourself, when you tell them.

Greta Garbo
About This Quote

These are the things that you can never tell to another person. They are personal, like your private joys and sorrows. You would feel cheap if you shared them with someone else. The secret of life is to  know who  you are.

To be able to love yourself and accept yourself for who  you are. To be able to love others and accept them for who  they are. If you can do that, then you will know that this is the greatest glory in living.

Everyone is different, but we all have something special, something unique inside us that makes us individual. There is no greater glory than knowing that you are the only one who has this special quality inside of him or her, something so amazing that everyone else wishes they had it. If you try to tell someone what your secret is, you will look foolish in the eyes of others.

That’s why it’s so important to keep it a secret, so nobody will ever know what really makes you unique and special.
