• Every subatomic interaction consists of the annihilation of the original particles and the creation of new subatomic particles.

• There's basically an element of fiction in everything you remember. Imagination and memory are almost the same brain processes.

When I write a memoir, I'm using true elements to create something that will always be somehow fictionalized.

• One cultivates spaciousness or awareness which allows you to acknowledge the emotions and see them as part of the human condition. Emotions are like subtle thought forms and they all arise in response to something outside yourself. They are all reactions. You cultivate a quietness in yourself that watches these emotions rising and falling and passing away.
