Poetry is perhaps what teaches us to nurture the charming illusion: how to be reborn out of ourselves over and over again, and use words to construct a better world, a fictitious world that enables us to sign a pact for a permanent and comprehensive peace ... with life.

"Life is full of surprises, some good, some not so good. But they're all part of the journey."

The world is a place of chaos and confusion, and the only way to make sense of it is to find your own path through it.

Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing, 

You have to be willing to fail to succeed.
