“Write to your heart’s content and by all means, have fun with your creation. It’s your moment to do absolutely anything within those pages.”

“Read to your heart’s content. Though if you are a reader, the heart is never content.”

“Contentment? Hmmmmmmmmm. That’s a really deep one. It requires diving deep into the moment and bringing up that contentment which lies deep within us. You may want to put your life behind you so that it doesn’t impede your way deeper. It’s alright to do something really slowly if that’s what it takes to do the thing you want to do.”

“By all means play the game of life, create new visions and have fun but do not identify yourself with your vision.”

“Doing risk sport had taught me another important lesson: never exceed your limits. You push the envelope and you live for those moments when you’re right on the edge, but you don’t go over. You have to be true to yourself; you have to know your strengths and limitations and live within your means.”

“The darkness is calling. A little danger, a little risk. Feel your heart race. Listen to it. That’s the sound of being alive. It’s your time, Nick. Your one chance to have fun before it’s all stolen by them, the adults, with their cruelty and endless rules, their can’t-do-this, and can’t-do-that’s, their have-tos, and better-dos, their little boxes and cages all designed to break your spirit, to kill your magic.”
