Favorite saying

• "At dawn my lover comes to me And tells me of her dreams With no attempts to shovel the glimpse Into the ditch of what each one means At times I think there are no words But these to tell what's true And there are no truths outside the Gates of Eden. Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don't be sorry. Half of what I say is meaningless, but I say it just to reach you For me there is only the traveling on paths that have heart, on any path that may have heart. There I travel, and the only worthwhile challenge is to traverse its full length. And there I travel looking, looking, breathlessly. The universe is just a guessed, blind measurement of your inner infinity Every morning we should jump out of bed like joyful immortal lions, free of fear and full of a love for life... Now I have loved some ladies, and I have loved Jim Beam, and they both tried to kill me back in 1973 Wine can of their wits the wise beguile, Make the sage frolic, and the serious smile Adults are children who don't dream anymore. My beating heart is the anchor to a ship so warm Through the darkness of future past The magican longs to see One chance out between two worlds: Fire walk with me"
