    “Have you ever seen a little girl run so fast she falls down? There's an instant, a fraction of a second before the world catches hold of her again...

Like taking a car out into the desert to see how fast it can go, I need to find the edge of me... And maybe, if I fly far enough, I'll be able to turn around and look at the world... And see where I belong.”

If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”
