“People’s stories are never finished, not as long as they’re alive.”

“We always need to remember that behind almost every great moment in history, there are heroic people doing really boring and frustrating things for a prolonged period of time.”

‘Old age is an excellent time for outrage. My goal is to say or do at least one outrageous thing every week.”

“There is a certain part of all of us that lives outside of time. Perhaps we become aware of our age only at exceptional moments and most of the time we are ageless.”

“The business of life is the acquisition of memories. In the end, that’s all there is.”
