Quotes by Edgar Calabia Samar (?)

“Maraming mundo ang bawat tao. Gagawin mo iyon kung wala kang makapa. Dadagdagan mo kung kulang, hahanapin kapag nawawala. Kung matagpuan na, pilit iyong tatakasan ng mga duwag at wawaratin naman ng mga matatapang para makagawa ng iba.”
― Edgar Calabia Samar, Walong Diwata ng Pagkahulog

“Isang beses lang tayo makapipili ng daan at pagkatapos noon, paulit-ulit na tayo sa daan na iyon- paikot-ikot, habang kinukumbinsi natin ang sarili na umuusad naman talaga tayo, na nagpapatuloy tayo, na mayroon tayong pinatutunguhan- kahit wala nga, wala naman talaga, paikot-ikot lang tayo sa iisang daan na noon, noong hindi natin alam, noong wala tayong kamalay-malay, ay nagpasya na pala tayo’t pinili nga ito.”

“Lahat, may hinahanap. Pero iba ang natatagpuan nila sa huli. Pero masaya pa rin sila. Lagi pa rin silang masaya.”
