I love storms and how the whole house shakes. When I was a kid, there would be lots of thunder and lightning storms, and they would knock the electricity out. We had this oil lantern that had been in my grandfather's homestead at the turn of the century, before there even was electricity. He'd bring it down off the top shelf, and we'd always play cards.

It's amazing when you find a photo of your grandparents when they were young because it's black and white and the care that they put into their appearance back then was so grown up and specific to that era.

Everything becomes closer once you realize that the world is only as far away as a nap and a meal.

You just never set roots; you take pleasure in simple conversations, because you know you're not going to have much more than that. It's very isolating, and that can be a good thing.

I think I prefer the constant renewal. It's almost like sandpapering down any details or any contour of familiarities.

Be alone even when there's a million people around, because tomorrow it will be a different million people.
