PHILOSOPHY

"... if I was being completely honest, I was just like everybody else: shit-scared of the great unknown. Desperate to take a little piece of home with me."

-The Beach, 2000

"I still believe in paradise... but now at least I know, it's not some place you can look for... because it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're part of something... and when you find that moment, it lasts forever."

The Beach, 2000
