I wish that I could deliver my condolences to Miyazaki-san and Otomo-san. If I could, I would share with them one of my favorite bits from one of my most treasured books:
Quote:"If our friendship depends on things like space and time, then when we overcome space and time, we've destroyed our own brotherhood! But overcome space, and all we have left is Here. Overcome time, and all we have left is Now. And in the middle of Here and Now, don't you think that we might see each other once or twice?" --Jonathan Livingston Seagull
