“Reed Richards had to use his anti-matter weapon on his own son, who Aannihilus has turn into the Human Atom Bomb. It was a typical predicament for the Fantastic Four, because they weren’t like other superheroes. They were more like a family. And the more power they had, the more harm they could do to each other without even knowing it. That was the meaning of the Fantastic Four: that a family is like your own personal anti-matter. Your family is the void you emerge from, and the place you return to when you die. And that’s the paradox – the closer you’re drawn back in, the deeper into the void you go.” – The Ice Storm, 1997, based on the novel by Rick Moody

In life, setbacks, delays, and detours are often just my way of keeping you for something way better. Don’t let them discourage you, don’t lose faith, and whatever you do, don’t stop dancing.” – Mike Dooley, Notes From The Universe

It doesn’t mean that there won’t be things to do that you would rather not do. Still, you must in some measure enjoy the process as a totality.” – Laurence Boldt, Zen and the Art of Making a Living
