Travel is the best teacher. The only way to an open mind is by taking a plane out into the open world.

I like people when they're Charles Bukowski at 2 AM. When they're saying what they really think, when they're feeling what they really feel. When they're cursing out the world, combing the sky for galaxies, and questioning God's existence. I like people who look you in the eyes and either tell you to fuck off or to stay forever! I like people when they just are. Otherwise... I don't really care so much to have them around at all.

Life is never a complacent thing. It's more like a verb. You're not just alive; you have to consciously fuel every moment with life, regardless of whether or not your reality lines up with your ideals. Your life is not what your ideals are. Your life is what you actually have when you wake up in the morning and when you go to sleep at night. So what are you gonna do with that?

I don't understand people who say, "I don't give this to people, or that to people; because nobody gave it to me before..." But that is exactly why you should give it! Because you know exactly what it feels like not to have it! And you never want another person to feel the way that you did!

Don't make the mistake of ruining your future, so that you can save your past. You've got this one, precious life. So what are you gonna do with it?

We come into this world and we are taught that life is a process of attainments. Or the collection of attainments. But I have since discovered that life is a process of rising above in the moments. The river wants to flow downhill or the wave wants to take you under; but you instead sit on a rock or surf the top of that wave. We essentially all have to be mermaids, every day, to live this life. There is a constant flow of water current: going up and going down. You go up to be happy.

We choose the countenance that we wear each day.

Life is beautiful and weird.

If you feel that there is something more for you, that there is something more in this life that is meant for you, if you believe that, if you feel your bones ache at night echoeing this yearning back at you; then by all means, go and find it!
