We’re all just walking each other home. - Ram Dass

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time. - Jack London

At night, I dream that you and I are two plants
that grew together, roots entwined, 
and that you know the earth and the rain like my mouth,
since we are made of earth and rain.

Pablo Neruda
