A good listener is not only popular everywhere, but after a while he knows something.

Wilson Mizner

'Why do we have to listen to our hearts?' 'Because, wherever your heart is, that is where you'll find your treasure.''But my heart is agitated,' the boy said. 'It has its dreams, it gets emotional, and it's become passionate over a woman of the desert. It asks things of me, and it keeps me from sleeping many nights, when I'm thinking about her.' 'Well, that's good. Your heart is alive. Keep listening to what it has to say.'

Paulo Coelho

Victor Hugo

Arthur Schopenhauer

The fear of death in the one place was not as strong as another kind of fear, the fear of a world gone crazy, a place where anything could happen, where nothing could be trusted, where nothing was certain. A terrible place.

Orson Scott Card
