The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.

People are such an interesting concept.

Some choose to base their life work on medical breakthroughs. Others choose teaching. Some choose numbers.

“But of this clean, hard, limited person, who dealt in universal scepticism, and who leaned back jauntily just within the circle of my arm.

“There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy, and the tired.”

And I feel terribly small
When my head works too hard
When you think with your chest, 
There’s not a thing that you don’t see.

I am not in control.
