Quotes by Howard Shulman  (?)

“Perhaps my story was never about my face but about the journey to arrive at a place of grace, which was far better than anything I could ever have imagined.”
Howard Shulman, Running from the Mirror

“So often when I despaired of ever finding answers, I wish I had understood that it is all so much simpler than I imagined—that there is hope amid despair and that family is anyone we truly touch, wherever they may be found.”
Howard Shulman, Running from the Mirror

“Autobiography of a Face.”
Howard Shulman, Running from the Mirror

“I trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we are not wise enough to see it.”
Oprah Winfrey

“The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.”
Robert Heinlein

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
Hunter S. Thompson, The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967

“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”
Epicurus

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
