“Some never participate. Life happens to them. They get by on little more than dumb persistence and resist with anger or violence all things that might lift them out of resentment-filled illusions of security. -Alma Mavis Taraza”
“I don’t think it’s quite that simple. Some people never observe anything, Life just happens to them. They get by on little more than a kind of dumb persistence, and they resist with anger and resentment anything that might lift them out of that false serenity.”
“I was with them for all of it, but more like an echo than a participant.”
“Because some things are never meant to be anything more than a moment. And that was one of them.”
“Don't wait for things to happen, get out and happen to them.”
“Fear is the illusion that I have some control over the bad things that might happen to me.”
