"So now, after two rambling years
comes the final and greatest adventure.
The climactic battle to kill
the false being within
and victoriously conclude
the spiritual revolution.
No longer to be poisoned
by civilization, he flees,
and walks alone
upon the land to become
lost in the wild."
"Rather than love, than money,
than faith,
"than fame, than fairness,
"give me truth."
"Some people feel like
they don't deserve love.
They walk away quietly
into empty spaces,
trying to close the gaps to the past."
"The sea's only gifts are harsh blows,
"and, occasionally,
the chance to feel strong.
"Now, I don't know much about the sea,
"but I do know that
that's the way it is here.
"And I also know
how important it is in life
"not necessarily to be strong,
but to feel strong,
"to measure yourself at least once,
"to find yourself at least once in
the most ancient of human conditions,
"facing the blind, deaf stone alone
"with nothing to help you
but your hands and your own head."
"If we admit that human life
can be ruled by reason,
"the possibility of life is destroyed."
"When you want more than you have
You think you need
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
'Cause when you have
more than you think
You need more space
Society, you're a crazy breed
I hope you're not lonely without me"
"And just remember
if you want something in life,
reach out and grab it."
"I have lived through much,
"and now I think I have found what is
needed for happiness.
"A quiet secluded life in the country,
"with the possibility of being useful to
people to whom it is easy to do good,
"and who are not accustomed
to have it done to them.
"And work which one hopes
may be of some use.
"Then rest, nature, books, music,
"love for one's neighbor.
"Such is my idea of happiness.
"And then, on top of all that,
you for a mate,
"and children perhaps.
"What more
can the heart of a man desire?"
"But there's some kind of bigger thing
we can all appreciate,
and it sounds like
you don't mind calling it God.
But when you forgive,
you love.
And when you love,
God's light shines on you."
"But you're wrong if you think
that the joy of life comes principally
from human relationships.
God's placed it all around us.
It's in everything.
It's in anything we can experience.
People just need to change the way
they look at those things."
"Happiness is only real when shared."
"For a moment she rediscovered
the purpose of her life.
"She was here on earth to grasp
the meaning of its wild enchantment,
"and to call each thing
by its right name."
"By its right name."
