“The world is full of people who will go their whole lives and not actually live one day. She did not intend on being one of them.”
“As I look at the human story I see two stories. They run parallel and never meet. One is of people who live, as they can or must, the events that arrive; the other is of people who live, as they intend, the events they create.”
“No matter how much one may love the world as a whole, one can live fully in it only by living responsibly in some small part of it. Where we live and who we live there with define the terms of our relationship to the world and to humanity. We thus come again to the paradox that one can become whole only by the responsible acceptance of one's partiality.”
“You could bury people one hundred floors down, and a whole dead world could be underneath the living one.”
“I pity the people who don't like to read, because then they spend their whole lives stuck in this one world and dont get to discover any others.”
“A very small percentage of the people in this world will actually experience and live today. So many people will be stuck on another day, another time that traumatized them and caused them to spiritually stutter so they miss out on this day.”
