“The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create.”

“I want to know you. You seem like someone worth knowing. Every day I feel like I’m surrounded by people with hard edges and sour faces but I get the sense that you’re different. Too often people seem to think that they have the answers to everything. Their faces are trapped in permascowls and they can’t be bothered with anything besides their own narcissism. You aren’t like that. You still ask questions. You’re still looking for the answers.”

“The unknown is your biggest fear, and your greatest gift.”

“We grow up being told to do this and told to do that because it's the 'right' thing to do.

If we did something obscure, it'd be 'wrong'.

We have been taught to choose the respectable, socially acceptable path that everyone else walks down.

What if we were told to do what feels right and were not afraid to perceive the world in an authentic light.

We are told how to think and what to think, but not how to feel.

We don't always need logic, we need to feel.”
