I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her.

"Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect the looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
