Quote by H.C. Roberts

“It was a never-ending, soul-sucking saga trying to live two lives — one online and one in the real world. The former was like a picturesque garden, and the latter more like a desert waste; none could escape from either.”

“I will tell you the purpose of life, but you must take this information and you must use it. But let a breeze pass between your learning and your reaction. Let a quiet moment slow your heart before excitement enters. I’m going to tell you and I want you to stay in that moment. Try to catch it. Your entire life is made up of memories and the smallest piece of RIGHT NOW. Here it is: the purpose of life is to find an empty space and use it. Now feel the breeze. Breathe.”

“When you reach a certain age, you see that time is all we have. By which I mean, moments like those springing deer this morning, and watching your mother be born, and sitting at the dining room table here waiting for the phone to ring and announce that a certain baby (you) had been born, or that day when all of us hiked out at Point Lobos. That extremely loud seal, your sister's scarf drifting down, down to that black, briny boulder, the replacement you so generously bought her in Monterey, how pleased you made her with your kindness. Those things were real. That is what (that is all) one gets. All this other stuff is real only to the extent that it interferes with those moments.”
