“We are wearing coats of trust. When one tells a story this is what happens.”
“Who are we if not the stories we pass down? What happens when there's no one left to tell those stories? To hear them? Who will ever know that I existed?”
“... If we don't tell strange stories, when something strange happens we won't believe it.”
“...What happens is of little significance compared with the stories we tell ourselves about what happens. Events matter little, only stories of events affect us.”
“Scars are badges of strength and courage. They tell the story of what we have endured. Only survivors wear them.”
“A story is based on what people think is important, so when we live a story, we are telling people around us what we think is important.”
