“Life attracts life.”

“Before I die, I want to fight for life.”

“All we have to do is understand that we're all here for a reason and to commit ourselves to that. Then we can laugh at our sufferings, large and small and walk fearlessly, aware that each step has meaning”

“You only need to hide if you’re doing something you shouldn’t.”

“I only invoked what you already knew.”

“If we are alone, we become more alone. Life is strange”

You live in this vast body called the Universe, which contains all the solutions and all the problems. Visit your soul; don’t visit your past. The Universe goes through many mutations and carries the past with it. We call each of those mutations a ‘life,’ but just as the cells in your body change and yet you remain the same, so time does not pass, it merely changes.”

“If everybody loves you, something is wrong. Find at least one enemy to keep you alert.”
