Additional quotes by Gary Paulsen

If you keep walking back from good luck, he thought, you’ll come to bad luck.

He had learned this: Nothing that lived, nothing that walked or crawled or flew or swam or slithered or oozed — nothing, not one thing on God’s earth wanted to die. No matter what people thought or said about chickens or fish or cattle — they all wanted to live.

Sometimes it would be nice if life just kept happening the way it's happening, if things got to a good place and just stayed there, didn't change.
