• Pelle : He's my good friend and I like him, but... Dani, do you feel held by him? Does he feel like home to you?

• Josh : Why 36?

  Pelle : Well we think of life like the seasons. So you're a child until you're 18 and that's spring. And then at some point we all do our Pilgrimage, which is between 18 and 36, and that's summer. And then from, eh - 36 to 54, we're working age, which is *fall*. And then finally from 54 to 72 you become a mentor.

  Dani : What happens at 72?
