I choose to live until death, not spend the time dying until death occurs.

You can't lie down in the ashes of another person's life.

Even though the future seems far away, it is actually beginning right now.

God gives me hope that there is something greater than us, something better and bigger than the here and now, that can help us live.

We all have life storms, and when we get the rough times and we recover from them, we should celebrate that we got through it. No matter how bad it may seem, there's always something beautiful that you can find.

I want to be remembered as a poet, a peacemaker, and a philosopher who played.

I think that someone is watching out for me, God, my guardian angel, I'm not sure who that is, but they really work hard.
