“Entering a novel is like going on a climb in the mountains: you have to learn the rhythm of respiration, acquire the pace; otherwise you stop right away.”
“If you despise the mountains you have climbed, you are not welcomed by the mountains you have not yet climbed!”
“...stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot oftener, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more and cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. ”
“When you move like a jellyfish rhyth don't mean nothing. You go with the flow, you don't stop. Move like a jellyfish, rhythm means nothing.You go with the flow you don't stop.”
“Ray, what you got to do is go climb a mountain...”
“There may be more to learn by climbing the same mountain a hundred times than by climbing a hundred different mountains.”
