Quote

I'm just going to stay here, in the darkness under the arch. I can hear you all out there, trip-trapping, trip-trapping over my bridge. Oh yes, I can hear you. But I'm not coming out.

Everybody has a secret world inside of them. I mean everybody. All of the people in the whole world, I mean everybody — no matter how dull and boring they are on the outside. Inside them they've all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds... Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands, maybe.

Songs remain. They last...A song can last long after the events and the people in it are dust and dreams and gone. That's the power of songs.

I don't know. I had to be something, didn't I?

It does not matter where you come from, if you walk toward the truth you will reach it, whatever path you take.

I've never known anyone who was what he or she seemed or at least, was only what he or she seemed. People carry worlds within them.

I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you're wonderful.

I don't know much more than I did when I was alive. Most of the stuff I know now that I didn't know then I can't put into words.

I thought I was your destination. Looks like I was just another stop on the line.

Stories you read when you're the right age never quite leave you. You may forget who wrote them or what the story was called. Sometimes you'll forget precisely what happened, but if a story touches you it will stay with you, haunting the places in your mind that you rarely ever visit.
