  1. A beautiful quote that can be interpreted in different ways. To me, it means, if we want to truly live life, then we need to dig way below the superficial layers that don’t mean anything.

  7. I don’t know, maybe I’m too literal, but I’m not sure I buy this quote. Does it mean that to appreciate the suffering and pain of the homeless and the hungry that we need to be homeless and hungry? Or that we need to experience illness to appreciate health?
