“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't really accept the God formula, the big answers don't remains tone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a comman nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn teachings of the church, state, and our education system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and life our life so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
