All I asked was that I be spared surprises, although, in this world of six billion souls, all acting with free will and too many with audacity, surprises are inevitable, too few of them are the kind that make you smile and that lift your heart.

One door away from heaven And the key is ours to lose. One door away from heaven But oh, the entry dues.

Creating a family in this turbulent world is an act of faith, a wager that against all odds there will be a future, that love can last, that the heart can triumph against all adversities and even against the grinding wheel of time.

Love and sausage are alike. Can never have enough of either.

Human beings are such knotted, desperate pieces of work-it's a rare thing to know one completely, to the core, and still love him.
