“If all you got to live for is what you left behind get yourself a powder charge and seal that silver mine.”

“Give your freedom to someone or to something and then look at yourself what have you got? I tell you, you’ve got nothing left!”

“How do you just stop being terrified of getting left behind and ending up by yourself forever and not meaning anything to the world?”

“I preach there are all kinds of truth, your truth and somebody else's, but behind all of them, there's only one truth and that is that there is no truth... No truth behind all truths is what I and this church preach! Where you come from is gone, where you thought you were going to never was there, and where you are is no good unless you can get away from it. Where is there a place for you to be? No place... In yourself right now is all the place you've got.”

“It's hard to be the one always waiting. I mean, there's something to be said for the hero who charges off to battle, but when you get right down to it there's a whole story in who's left behind.”

“Most of what has lived on Earth has left behind no record at all.”
