What on earth can you do on this earth but catch at whatever comes near you, with both your fingers, until your fingers are broken?
What is straight? A line can be straight, or a street, but the human heart, oh, no, it’s curved like a road through mountains.
We’re all of us sentenced to solitary confinement inside our own skins, for life!
We’re all of us guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.

Walls are built up between people a hell of a damn sight faster than – broken down.

Time is the longest distance between two places.
Time doesn’t take away from true friendship, nor does separation.
