In the wild, animals stick to the same paths for the same pressing reasons, season after season.
In my experience, a castaway’s worst mistake is to hope too much and to do too little.
In a healthy individual, a broken bone that has healed properly is strongest where it was once broken. You have not lost any life, Henry told himself. You will still get your fair share of years. Yet...
If you don't let technology help you, if you resist good ideas, you condemn yourself to dinosaurhood.
If you are pitched into misery, remember that your days on this earth are counted and you might as well make the best of those you have left.
If there is a change, it is usually for the lesser rather than the greater; many people seem to lose God along life's way.

I couldn’t bear to have yet another French speaker guffawing at my name, so when the man on the phone asked, Can I ’ave your name? I said, I am who I am. Half an hour later two pizzas arrived for Ian...
