"All knowledge hurts."

"It is not true that people stop pursuing dreams because they grow old, they grow old because they stop pursuing dreams."

"Maturity is a bitter disappointment for which no remedy exists, unless laughter could be said to remedy anything."

"We dream, we wake on a cold hillside, we pursue the dream again. In the beginning was the dream, and the work of disenchantment never ends."
