“Facts are important, the story is important. It's what happens to you that changes your life, not where or who with.”
“It's not where you start or even what happens to you along the way that's important. What is important is that you persevere and never give up on yourself.”
“What is important in your life is what you decide is important -- and this decision will indelibly create who you are”
“It's important to tell your story. It's important to listen.”
“The most important things of your life can change so suddenly, so unrecoverably, that you can forget even the most important of them and their connections, you are so taken up by the chanciness of all's that happened and by all that could and will happen next.”
“Your past is not as important as your future. Did you know that? Can't change anything about what you've been, but you can change who you'll become.”
