“Because falling, if you live in the moment,is really just flying, at least until you read the ground”

“Falling in love was like falling off a cliff. It felt pretty much like flying until you hit the ground.”

“Until you're about the age of twenty you read everything, and you like it simply because you are reading it. then between twenty and thirty you pick up what you want, and you read the best, you read all the great works.after that you sit and wait for them to be written. But you know the least know, the least famous writers, they are the better ones.”

“Falling, whether to the ground or in love, is always at least a little bit scary, even if you do it slowly.”

“I could lay here and read all night. I am not able to fall asleep without reading. You have the time when your brain has nothing to do so it rambles. I fool my brain out of that by making it read until it shuts off. I just think it is best to do something right up until you fall asleep.”

“Present-moment living, getting in touch with your now, is at the heart of effective living. When you think about it, there really is no other moment you can live. Now is all there is, and the future is just another present moment to live when it arrives.”
