“I'd rather sing one wild song and burst my heart with it, than live a thousand years watching my digestion and being afraid of the wet.”
“I'd rather learn from one bird how to sing than teach ten thousand stars how not to dance”
“But I'd rather help than watch. I'd rather have a heart than a mind. I'd rather expose too much than too little. I'd rather say hello to strangers than be afraid of them. I would rather know all this about myself than have more money than I need. I'd rather have something to love than a way to impress you.”
“I'd rather live laughing for one year than live without laughing for one hundred.”
“I'd rather die on my own terms than live on theirs. I'd rather die loving Alex than live without him.”
“I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees”
