“It took me a long time to realize that distance can ruin even the best of intentions.”
“. . . if the way ahead is not clear, time is often the best editor of one's intentions.”
“Life has a way of disregarding even your best intentions.”
“History had a way of playing cruel tricks on those who chased it.”
“Also, go inside and listen to your body, because your body will never lie to you. Your mind will play tricks, but the way you feel in your heart, in your guts, is the truth.”
