There was no changing that prophecy. But the way you suffered was completely unnecessary. Had your parents embraced their true destiny, you would have been saved years of torment. Fate will not be denied. We can sculpt it, but in the end we’re all pawns to our final destinies. Good, bad, or indifferent. (Savitar)”

I knew then, even though I couldn't actually say it to myself properly, that there was more to you than what you present.”

Only remember what is plainly and always true: the act of serving fulfills itself.”

Friends will say they love your poetry, adore your music, envy your taste in clothes - maybe they mean, often they do not.”

“You often hear that people go into show business to find the love they never had when they were children. Never believe it! Every comic and most of the actors I know had a childhood full of love.

So they went into show business to recapture the love they had known as children when they were the center of the universe.”
