“I suppose the point you grow up is the point you let the dreams go.”

“I suppose at some point, we all have to decide which memories - real or otherwise - to hold on to, and which ones to let go.”

“The point is, not to resist the flow. You go up when you're supposed to go up and down when you're supposed to go down. When you're supposed to go up, find the highest tower and climb to the top.

If everything dries up, the world is darkness.”

“Karma is everything that’s happened to you up to this point. You have to let everything go – especially the “bad things”, that’s where the work is.”

“I don't see what the point is in growing up.”
