Sometimes stories meet at corners and sometimes they cover one another completely, like stones beneath a river.

How Do PEOPLE choose their final words? Do they realize their gravity? Are they fated to be wise?

They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important

I spent so many hours on things that meant absolutely nothing to me personally

The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in

tapes, like photographs and videos, are a desperate attempt to steal something from death's suitcase

Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.

Turn on the faucet. Wash yourself with the emotion.

Who wants to live every day when you don't know what's going on?

if you're trying to show off for people at the top, forget it. They will look down at you anyhow. And if you're trying to show off for people at the bottom, forget it. They will only envy you. Status will get you nowhere. Only an open heart will allow you to float equally between everyone
