He's a beautiful soul. He's a real brother. He's a kindred spirit. Like every once in a while, you run into someone, you're like... In his book, Lion Tracker's Guide to Life, he has this gorgeous quote, which is the words of a master tracker, Reneas. I have no idea where I'm going, but I know exactly how to get there.

I have a big part of me, and it's a strength and a weakness.
