“Being responsible is taking ownership of your life. It means you have taken the first radical step to becoming a complete human being—fully conscious and fully human.

You have begun the greatest adventure life has to offer: the voyage inward.”

“You can never really live anyone else's life, not even your child's. The influence you exert is through your own life, and what you've become yourself.”

“Ah, well, being conflicted means you can live a shallow life without copping to be a shallow person.”

“Everything changes when you wake up in the morning and decide to own today. It will not be taken from you by anyone else, it will be yours”

“Life needs a meaning and living requires a purpose. Without meaning and purpose, are the livings really alive?”

“Read your own obituary notice; they say you live longer. Gives you second wind. New lease of life.”
