“Nadie por ser joven dude en filosofar ni por ser viejo de filosofar se hastíe. Pues nadie es joven o viejo para la salud de su alma. El que dic que aún no es edad de filosofar o que la edad ya pasó es como el que dice que aún no ha llegado o que ya pasó el momento oportuno para la felicidad. De modo que deben filosofar tanto el joven como el viejo. Éste para que, aunque viejo, rejuvenezca en bienes por el recuerdo gozoso del pasado, aquél para que sea joven y viejo a un tiempo por su impavidez ante el futuro.”

“I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me, but it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once, and it’s too much; my heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold onto it. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can’t feel anything but gratitude—for every single moment of my stupid, little life. You have no idea what I’m talking about, I’m sure; but don’t worry….you will someday.”

“Beauty is unbearable, drives us to despair, offering us for a minute the glimpse of an eternity that we should like to stretch out over the whole of time.”
