Best Erik Pevernagie Quotes

"A fleeting moment can become an eternity. From a past encounter everything may disappear in the dungeon of forgetfulness. A few furtive flashes or innocent twinkles can survive, though.

Erik Pevernagie

"If we go down the rabbit hole of our unconsciousness and try to unravel the knotty points of our life story we may encounter a bunch of hidden niceties or emotional stowaways.

Awareness can help us shape a comprehensive picture for a functional future. ("Lost the global story.")"
