Alive Quote by Garth Stein
““To live every day as if it had been stolen from death, that is how I want to live. To feel the joy of life, to separate oneself from burden, the angst, the anguish that we encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to.””
