Be unprepared, that’s my motto. Be unprepared, and let life overwhelm you.
The wind was never angry, the rain was never sad.
Time is a river that carries us along. We have to leave everything behind.

Expectations have no effect on the harvest.
It’s during a storm that the best songs get written.

Soon it will be autumn and we haven’t the power to keep a single leaf from falling.
Meddling is the evil, not indifference.
