“Life is a sacred experiment.”— Lailah Gifty Akita Related Quotes “Grief is a disease. We were riddled with its pockmarks, tormented by its fevers, broken by its blows. It ate at us like maggots, attacked us like lice- we scratched ourselves to the edge of madness. In the process we became as withered as crickets, as tired as old dogs.”— Yann Martel “Consular cards were not designed to be identification and no treaty recognizes them as such. Legal travelers, visitors and long-term residents carried passports, visas or green cards for that purpose.”— Elton Gallegly “How soon will we accept this opportunity to be fully alive before we die? (88)”— Stephen Levine
