"Personally, I do not want to make you a man. Men are so very frail. Men break. Men die. No, I've always wished to make a god."

“A fool pulls the leaves. A brute chops the trunk. A sage digs the roots.”

“Man is no island. We need those who love us. We need those who hate us. We need others to tether us to life, to give us a reason to live, to feel.”
