1 " What matters the most is that you live your own story to the fullest and that you tell it well. Be off now. The world awaits you "
― , Storyteller
2 " Storytellers tell stories, of course, but they aren't alone in doing so. The dawn tells a story; so does the sun as it arcs across the sky; so does the sunset. The seasons tell a complex story. The fall of an acorn and the growth of an oak tree tell a story. A farmer's plow and the furrows in a field tell a story as well. Even the waves crashing on a beach tell a story. How easy to see, then, that an ax tells a story, too, at least while it hangs for a moment in the air just before descending onto your neck. That story is: Now you die. "
3 " At that moment Jack reached an insight, one he never forgot: a bee in a story could tickle worse than a real bee. He realized, too, that a story peach could be sweeter than a real peach, a story flower more fragrant than a real flower, a story song more melodious than a real song. What existed in a story could be more real than what existed in the world. And by reaching this insight, Jack understood the true power of his art. "
4 " For each of us, life is a story. There are characters, conflicts, plot developments, crises, interludes, twists and resolutions. Sometimes the story makes sense, sometimes it doesn’t. But there’s still value in the story itself, even when you can’t add up the parts and understand the whole. A good story can lead you toward insight perhaps wisdom, regardless of whether or not you fully understand it. Maybe that’s why storytelling has always been so important to me. "
