“I'm a simple-minded fuck who can't read your mind, and even if I could, I would be so lost in the sheer volume of thoughts and feelings it wouldn't do me any good. I need you NOT to shut me out. To explain yourself. To help me understand you. To be your authentic self with me. But with concise communication.”

“The mind has greater power than a computer.
The heart has greater power than an engine.
The soul has greater power than a reactor.
The tongue has greater power than a sword.
The eye has greater power than a camera.
The ear has greater power than a recorder.
The feet are a greater invention than the car.
The hands are a greater invention than the carriage.
The nose is a greater invention than the vacuum.
The mouth is a greater invention than the megaphone.
The stomach is a greater invention than the refrigerator.
The skin is a greater invention than clothes.”

“I was taught by family at ten.
I was taught by books at twenty.
I was taught by enemies at thirty.
I was taught by nature at forty.
I was taught by life at fifty.
At ten, I was foolish.
At twenty, I was naïve.
At thirty, I was alert.
At forty, I was experienced.
At fifty, I was wise.”
