“Can it be that there is not enough space for man in this beautiful world, under those immeasurable, starry heavens?”

“Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness. All can know good as good only because there is evil.”

“Immeasurable space. Closeness. The shortest distance between two women.”

“When no hope was left inside On that starry, starry nightYou took your life as lovers often doBut I could have told you, VincentThis world was never meant For one as beautiful as you.”

“The yard was full of tomato plants about to ripen, and mint, mint, everything smelling of mint, and one fine old tree that I loved to sit under on those cool perfect starry California October nights unmatched anywhere in the world.”

“If you want to change the way that the world appears to be; you must change the way that you see everything in it. And if you want to change the world; you must change the way everyone else sees everything in it. And when everyone else sees everything in the world in a new way, the world will be changed and then mankind will turn their faces to the heavens in search of a brand new vision and then it will be able to see the heavens for what the heavens really are! That being because, in order for a person to change how he sees the world, he must first change the eyes of his soul and it is with those new eyes that man can look at the sun, that man can see the heavens, that man can know God. Then it is with these newfound truths that humanity will continue to live, but living by walking in a new reality.”
