“Life is granted to no man on a permanent basis. It is a privilege, and we must use out time wisely. It is up to each of us to make of it what we can.”

“I find it fascinating how we can see something with our eyes, hear with our ears and speak from our mouths. Although science tells us how they work, I just really can't grasp it. I don't know how everyday items like phones work. I can't even explain why a bicycle is fast. When I think like this, I wonder how many things I really understand. Yet I can live on. Because all these mysteries have joined together to keep me alive. Sometimes I admire that before I go to bed.”

“We know each other in a way that no one else can. We share a history that makes us permanently connected.”

“To begin to understand the gorgeous fever that is consciousness, we must try to understand the senses and what they can tell us about the ravishing world we have the privilege to inhabit.”

“Leverage is a term that makes us sound very sophisticated and wise when we use it. Let’s analyze what it really means.”

“Can we try to be wise with each other for a very long time?”

“A wise man once said that we can't make anyone feel or do anything. We can throw things into the wind, but it's up to each person to decide how they want to react, where they want to stand when things fall.”
