“A community is only being created when its members accept that they are not going to achieve great things, that they are not going to be heroes, but simply live each day with new hope, like children, in wonderment as the sun rises and in thanksgiving as it sets.

“A spider lives inside my head
Who weaves a strange and wondrous web
Of silken threads and silver strings

And dust of dreams that catch and cling
For years and years and years...”

“When I am gone what will you do?
Who will write and draw for you?
Someone smarter-someone new?
Someone better-maybe YOU!”
