“How terribly sad it was that people are made in such a way that they get used to something as extraordinary as living.”

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written.

We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”

“How does distance look?" is a simple direct question. It extends from a spaceless within to the edge of what can be loved.”
