The process of growing up is, sadly, a process of turning the mysterious into the mundane. We cease to be amazed by things—the sky, the turning of the seasons, love, other people—only because we have grown accustomed to them.
This was a fabulous book I did not expect to enjoy as much as I did. So much beauty in his observations of life and Dublin.
“The Voice
There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
"I feel this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong."
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you--just listen to
The voice that speaks inside.”

“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!”
