ABOUT ME
"if god wanted us to be hitchhikers he would have given us bigger thumbs" graffiti in Paris.
i studied philosophy just to find out that it's people not abstract ideas i love. i'm a journalist every now and then, but most of the time i'm a teacher who belives that:
The mediocre teacher tells.
The good teacher explains.
The superior teacher demonstrates.
The great teacher inspires.
- William A. Ward
PHILOSOPHY
maybe we wont meet again but as we're talking now you're the most important person for me
birds sing to save themselves from strangling which is exactly why i'm travelling
cheap wine shared, served in a plastic cup tastes better than the most expensive one served in a fancy restaurant as the former is a beginnig of a conversation and friendship
