“We walk alone through this world, but if we're lucky, we have a moment of belonging to something, to someone, that sustains us through a lifetime of loneliness.”

“You do not have to be alone. The world never inflicts loneliness upon us. That is something we choose or reject by ourselves.”

“Why do we even bother? Why do we make ourselves so open to such easy damage? Is it all loneliness? Is it all fear? Or is it just to experience those narcotic moments of belonging with someone else?”

“Sometimes we find ourselves walking through life blindfolded, and we try to deny that we're the ones who securely tied the knot.”

“We live, we die. Somewhere along the way, if we're lucky, we may find someone to help lighten the load.”

“When we love someone our love becomes demonstrable or real only through our exertion - through the fact that for that someone (or for ourself) we take an extra step or walk an extra mile. Love is not effortless. To the contrary, love is effortful.”

“Most of us all walk around as if we're sleepwalking. We really don't experience the world fully, because we're half-asleep, doing things we automatically think we have to do.”

“We were always getting away with something, which implied that someone was always watching us, which mean were are not alone in this world.”

“We breathe the light, we breathe the music, we breathe the moment as it passes through us.”

“This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it’s with us wherever we are.”
