You're afraid of getting hurt like I'm afraid to die. It doesn't mean I'm not going to live every day to its fullest.

Boring people live boring lives.

...we live on the edge of the abstract all the time. Look at something solid in the known world: an automobile. Separate the fender, the hood, the roof, lie them on the garage floor, walk around them. Let go of the urge to reassemble the care or to pronounce fender, hood, roof. Look at them as curve, line, form. Relax the mind. Don't immediately try to make meaning or be practical. Truthfully, how practical is life anyway? All our work, and death is the final result? So let's enjoy the unfolding shape, the elemental, organic delight and agony of it all.

Anything that is exclusive will be accused of elitism; living one’s dreams will be called pretentious. So let’s indulge the whim and see where it takes us.

We need to embrace every day and enjoy it as much as we can.

Life can only be understood looking backward. It must be lived forward.
