“Do not deny the classical approach, simply as a reaction, or you will have created another pattern and trapped yourself there.”

“Waiting. Simply one person doing nothing, over time, while another approached.”

“Classic fairy tales do not deny the existence of heartache and sorrow, but they do deny universal defeat.”

“If you free yourself from the conventional reaction to a quantity like a million years, you free yourself a bit from the boundaries of human time. And then in a way you do not live at all, but in another way you live forever.”

“When you have an emotional reaction to what you see, you are judging. That is your signal that you have an issue inside of yourself - with yourself - not with the other person. If you react to evil, look inside yourself for the very thing that so agitates you, and you will find it. If it were not there, you will simply discern, act appropriately, and move on.”

“In literature, you either create a classical or create a foam! There is no in between!”
