"Truth is always quicker, kid."
"You can't turn back the clock, kid. But you can wind it up again."
"Change isn't just a slogan. It begins with hard work. Change begins with persistence and commitment."
“The perks go to the guy who plays the game, the ones who politic.”
“You don't throw away a whole life just because it's banged up a little.”
“What's so wonderful is that every one of these flowers has a specific relationship with the insect that pollinates it. There's a certain orchid that looks exactly like a certain insect so the insect is drawn to this flower, its double, its soul mate, and wants nothing more than to make love to it. And after the insect flies off, spots another soul-mate flower and makes love to it, thus pollinating it. And neither the flower nor the insect will ever understand the significance of their lovemaking. I mean, how could they know that because of their little dance the world lives? But it does. By simply doing what they're designed to do, something large and magnificent happens. In this sense they show us how to live, how the only barometer you have is your heart. How, when you spot your flower, you can't let anything get in your way.”
“Adaptation is a profound process. It means you figure out how to thrive in the world."
