For many of us, the curtain had just come down on childhood.

Love is how you stay alive, even after you are gone.

When someone is in your heart, they're never truly gone. They can come back to you, even at unlikely times.

Accept who you are; and revel in it.

Don't cling to things because everything is impermanent.

Depression comes from not accepting the way things are - and seeing no way too change them.

All my movies, as I get the ability to do it, they tend to go a little darker, a little darker.
