“What is an ocean but a multitude of drops?”

“My life extends far beyond the limitations of me.”

“Knowledge is a mirror and for the first time in my life I was allowed to see who I was and who I might become.”

“The minute you stop trying to find it, it will find you.”

“Our lives are not our own.  From womb to tomb, we are bound to others – past and present.  And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.”

“Our lives and our choices, like quantum trajectories, are understood moment-to-moment.  At each point of intersection, each encounter, suggests a new potential direction.”

“Hunger is stronger than all their smart – a hunger for more.”

“Rob a man of everything and that man will no longer be in your power.”
