“A person’s life story is equal to what they have plus what they want most in the world, minus what they’re actually willing to sacrifice for it.”

“Put the number seven in front of a mirror and what do you have? If you answered 77, then perhaps you talk to yourself in the mirror, and wait for a response from your reflection. Seven standing in front of a mirror equals seven. Two plus two equals yes. Two minus two equals maybe. And yes minus maybe equals four.”

“Results aren’t determined by what you are capable of doing- they’re all about what you are willing to actually do…”

“In the arithmetic of love, one plus one equals everything, and two minus one equals nothing.”

“Never, ever, sacrifice what you want the most, for what you want the most at that moment.”

“But what if your obsession has nothing to do with drugs or thrills or money? What if what you want most in the world is to recapture the way life was a week, a month, a year ago-and you are willing to do whatever it takes?”
