A Quote by Joel Embiid
I always thought that the U.S. was just amazing, and it was just a dream. I thought it was Heaven. Coming here a couple years ago, you know, the U.S. is still nice, but it's not like what I thought it was going to be.

Just let them pass away as they arise, open and unresisting, and your mind merges with the spacious sky.
