I am afraid. Not of life, or death, or nothingness, but of wasting it as if I had never been. - Daniel Keyes

We learn what something is not — and that is as important as a positive discovery to the man who is going to pick up from there. At least he knows what not to do.

The answer can't be found in books — or be solved by bringing it to other people. Not unless you want to remain a child all your life. You've got to find the answer inside you — feel the right thing to do.

I am not only a thing, but also a way of being — one of many ways — and knowing the paths I have followed and the ones left to take will help me understand what I am becoming.
