If you, as a parent, raise your children well, they won't need you anymore. If you did it properly, they go away.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Is there any person in the world who does not dream? Who does not contain within them worlds unimagined?

Too much talking these days. Talk talk talk. This country would get along much better if people learned how to suffer in silence.

Charitably... I think... sometimes, perhaps, one must change or die. And, in the end, there were, perhaps, limits to how much he could let himself change.
