"We all got problems. But there's a great book out called "Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart. " Did you see that? That book says the statute of limitations has expired on all childhood traumas. Get your stuff together and get on with your life, man. Stop whinin'about what's wrong, because everybody's had a rough time, in one way or another. "
- Quincy Jones

"If the sun is shining, stand in it, yes, yes, yes. Happy times are great, but happy times pass - they have to, because time passes. The pursuit of happiness is more elusive; it is life-long, and it is not goal-centered. What you are pursuing is meaning, a meaningful life, and there are times when it will go so wrong that you will be barely alive, and times when you realize that being barely alive, on your own terms, is better than living a bloated half-life on someone else's terms. "
- Jeanette Winterson
