“ Take wrong turns. Talk to strangers. Open unmarked doors. And if you see a group of people in a field, go find out what they are doing. Do things without always knowing how they'll turn out. You're curious and smart and bored, and all you see is the choice between working hard and slacking off. There are so many adventures that you miss because you're waiting to think of a plan. To find them, look for tiny interesting choices. And remember that you are always making up the future as you go. ”

To be wounded by your own understanding of love; And to bleed willingly and joyfully.

It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. ”
