No, Edward. You are here so I can teach you something. All the people you meet here have one thing to teach you.

I think what you notice most when you haven’t been home in a while is how much the trees have grown around your memories.

Fairness, does not govern life and death. If it did, no good person would ever die young. ~ The blue man

We move through places every day that would never have been if not for those who came before us. Our workplaces, where we spend so much time--we often think they began with our arrival. That's not true.

All these people that you meet or I meet, there's not a prayer in hell that they're ever going to run for office or major office because if they're that smart, they're also smart enough to know they don't want to take everything that they've built up and have it torn apart by a sensationalized media that's so hungry for any kind of salacious detail that they'll make that the emphasis of the person's life. And then all of sudden, 50, 60 years of hard work and accomplishment go out the window.

Suddenly, details seemed extremely important. Details were something to grab on to, a way to insert myself into the story.

All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped.
