“I didn’t know then what a crush was or what makes one so perilously alluring. It is our biology reminding us that emotion is postscript, not preface, to our baser desires.”

“Some believe what separates men from animals is our ability to reason. Others say it’s language or romantic love, or opposable thumbs. Living here in this lost world, I’ve come to believe it is more than our biology. What truly makes us human is our unending search, our abiding desire for immortality.”

“Of course I need not remind you how fluid a thing thought is with me-- with us all-- and of what an evanescent substance are our emotions made.”

“I don't know what frightens me more, the power that crushes us, or our endless ability to endure it.”

“The Moon rules our emotional nature, how we react in situations, and what is needed in our lives to make us feel emotionally safe and secure.”

“The problem for us is not are our desires satisfied or not. The problem is how do we know what we desire.”
