As a scrawny nerd with nary an athletic bone in my body, I’m jealous of people who can open water bottle caps with ease and take the stairs without getting winded.

“Life is made up of little moments that don’t seem that important at the time, but in retrospect they’re what get you to where you are.”

“That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons.”

― The Ocean at the End of the Lane
“Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave.
And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be.
The Good Place”
