What's Wrong With Being Number Two?

You Don't Understand. You're Not A Wave. You're Part Of The Ocean.

When You Learn To Die, You Learn To Live.

It’s Natural To Die. The Fact That We Make Such A Big Hullabaloo Over It Is All Because We Don’t See Ourselves As Part Of Nature. We Think Because We’re Human We’re Something Above Nature.

So Many People Walk Around With A Meaningless Life. They Seem Half-asleep, Even When They're Busy Doing Things They Think Are Important. This Is Because They're Chasing The Wrong Things.

My Contention Is That As Long As You Have Other Faculties-the Emotional, Psychological, Intuitive Faculties-you Haven't Lost Yourself Or Even Diminished Yourself. Don't Be Ashamed When You're Physically Limited Or Dysfunctional; Don't Think That You're Any Less Because Of Your Condition. In Fact, I Feel I Am Even More Myself Than I Was Before I Got This Illness Because I Have Been Able To Transcend Many Of The Psychological And Emotional Limitations I Had Before I Developed Als.
