“Maybe all living beings get to experience a bright shining moment at least once in their lives, precisely because they all crumble like overripe fruit, disappear like fireworks in the night sky.”

“Overwrought emotions are invisible to the naked eye and could rise endlessly like a hydrogen filled balloon. The similarity between emotion and balloons was that they imploded once far out of sight. Compared to that, reality was so dry and depressing, like a swing or a bouncy ball - no matter how high it went, it was still within sight, and always came down, unable to free itself from the pull of the earth.”

“The average life span can’t be the yardstick against which to measure an old person’s health. The increase in average life expectancy is merely due to the ability of science and medicine to delay death. As the focus is on prolonging life without having fully considered its quality, an old person living in a society with an average life span of one hundred years is like a prophetic shaman who forgets to include “pretty and young” when praying for eternal life and forever ends up with a wrinkly face and a hunched back.”
