Livy

May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness.

And I hope, somewhere in the next year, you surprise yourself.

If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up people to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
