Mr. Franz, I think careers are a 20th century invention and I don't want one.

Some people feel like they don't deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past.

It is easy, when you are young, to believe that what you desire is no less than what you deserve, to assume that if you want something badly enough, it is your God-given right to have it.

I'm going to paraphrase Thoreau here... rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth.

What if I were smiling and running into your arms? Would you see then what I see now?

I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong, but to feel strong... to measure yourself at least once.

According to the moral absolutism that characterizes McCandless's beliefs, a challenge in which a successful outcome is assured isn't a challenge at all.

Happiness [is] only real when shared

When you forgive, you love. And when you love, God’s light shines upon you.

I don’t want to know what time it is. I don’t want to know what day it is or where I am. None of that matters.

I am not a commercial industry creator. I don't believe in making art to make money.

Me can't tell you how me know Rastafari. It is pure vision.

I am pained to listen that my daughters, grand daughters and great grand daughters are no longer safe.

Somebody else's ignorance is bliss.

We're heading for a gov. shutdown. This is serious. W/o the gov who will fail to inspect our airplanes? Who will fail to secure our borders? Who will put us 14 trillion dollars in debt?

Loving your neighbour as much as yourself is practically bloody impossible? You might as well have a commandment that states,'Thou shalt fly'.

Sometimes the people who hurt us the most are people who were hurt more than us.

One time I went to a hotel. I asked the bellhop to handle my bag. He felt up my wife!
