“They say all things end. But I say all things begin.”

“The sting of a fly, the Congolese say, can launch the end of the world. How simply things begin.”

“Everyone who tells a story tells it differently, just to remind us that everybody sees it differently. Some people say there are true things to be found, some people say all kinds of things can be proved. I don't believe them. The only thing for certain is how complicated it all is, like string full of knots. It's all there but hard to find the beginning and impossible to fathom the end. The best you can do is admire the cat's cradle, and maybe knot it up a bit more.”

“Embrace the moment. It’s where all things begin and end.”

“I can say anything, but the things I want to say are trapped in that wide open space so I don’t say anything at all.”

“One age ends, and another begins. It is the way of things. But, it doesn't happen all at once.”
