   I believe that life is a game, that life is a cruel joke, and that life is what happens when you're alive and that you might as well lie back and enjoy it.

   Just because you are taught something that is right and everybody believes it is right doesn't make it right.

   Have you ever felt sad but you don't really have a reason to feel sad, I mean, your life's great and you're happy and you have friends and everything's going fine. But then you're alone, and you just think about everything going on in your life, and these thoughts overrule your mind and suddenly you're sad.
   And you don't know why.

   And this I believe: that the free , exploring mind of the individual human is the most valuable thing in the world.
   And this I would fight for: the freedom of the mind to take any direction it wishes, undirected.

   "I draw because words are too unpredictable.
   I draw because words are too limited.
   If you speak and write in English, or Spanish, or Chinese, or any other language,
   then only a certain percentage of human beings will get your meaning.
   But when you draw a picture, everybody can understand it.
   If I draw a cartoon of a flower, then every man, woman, and child in the world can
   look at it and say, "That's a flower."

   One could not count the moons that shimmer on her roofs,
   Or the thousand splendid suns that hide behind her walls.

    It's not the photography recaptures the world you have been in; more that it creates a new one: photographs are like Post-It notes reminding us of the deep architectonic forms of
    space and thought.

    "I'm ruined beyond repair, is what I fear. And if so, in time we'd both be wretched and bitter."
    "I know people can be mended. Not all, and some more immediately than others. But some can be, I don't see why not you."

    Still, what I want in my life
    is to be willingly
    to be dazzled--
    to cast aside the weigh of facts
    and maybe even
    to float a little
    above this difficult world.
    I want to believe I am looking
    into the white fire of a great mystery.
    I want to believe that the imperfections are nothing --
    that the light is everything-- that it is more than the sum
    of each flawed blossom rising and fading. And I do.
    - Mary Oliver

    young and didn't know who I was or wanted to be."
