"Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born."
Friendship

Integrity

Fear
"How well I know with what burning intensity you live. You have experienced many lives already, including several you have shared with me- full rich lives from birth to death, and you just have to have these rest periods in between."
Experience
