The real blessings come without our asking or even knowing what they are.

There is more chance than choice in our decisions.

Be unprepared, that's my motto. Be unprepared, and let life overwhelm you.

Destiny is the name we give to the strange way our lives turn out.

It takes, unhappily, no more than a desk and writing supplies to turn any room into a confessional.

Ages and epochs belong to Time. Only the fleeting moment is eternal.
