“[...]what we are talking about are negative obligations--the duty not to cause harm.”
“I have lived this life, and no matter what others may decide about it, I must claim each decision as mine. I have caused harm, failed in the expectations and obligations of love. I have loved well. What I do each day is carried within me until I die. ”
“Sometimes we do terrible things to the ones we love just to see what harm we can cause.”
“At the root of all the harm we cause is ignorance.”
“My choice is what I choose to do, and if I'm causing no harm, it shouldnt bother you. Your choice is who you choose to be, and if you're causing no harm, it shouldn't bother me.”
“No matter what we talk about, we are talking about ourselves”
