“Life is chaotic and unscripted. Not everyone becomes a success. Or, even a failure. Most people just are. They don't even consider what they are. They just are.”

“That to fly requires chaotic, sometimes even violent passages--becomes a metaphor for all of life's most meaningful endeavors. ”

“Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.”

“We realized that life, even the worst of life, consists of an alternation of joys and sorrow, successes and failure more than the successes.”

“Successful people do what others know they should do but will not. To become a success, or just be *more* successful, you will do what average, less-motivated people will not.”

“There are things so horrible that even the dark is afraid of them. Most people don't know this and this is just as well because the world could not really operate if everyone stayed in bed with the blankets over their head, which is what would happen if people knew what horrors lay a shadow's width away.”
