I want to be what I was when I wanted to be what I am now.

No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance.

William Henry Davies

Wasn't that their natural right, to know the truth so as to be able to let the truth lead them to do good or evil, as they chose?

Orson Scott Card

Cruelty, like every other vice, requires no motive outside of itself; it only requires opportunity.

George Eliot

He had had a severe shock some weeks earlier, when, having narrowly failed to capture a large grey-brown hare for his dinner, it had stopped at the edge of the forest, looked at him with disdain, and said, 'Well, I hope you're proud of yourself, that's all,' and had scampered off into the long grass

Neil Gaiman

These aren't the droids you're looking for.

Obi-Wan Kenobi

In the end, your past is not my past and your truth is not my truth and your solution - is not my solution.

Zadie Smith

The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.

Dorothea Lange

Chase away sorrow by living

Melissa Marr

Life is a hot day, perhaps death is a cool night. Life is a shallow bay, perhaps death is a clear, deep sea.

Mika Waltari

He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance one cannot fly into flying.

Friedrich Nietzsche

That love is reverence, and worship, and glory, and the upward glance. Not a bandage for dirty sores. But they don't know it. Those who speak of love most promiscuously are the ones who've never felt it. They make some sort of feeble stew out of sympathy, compassion, comtempt, and general indiference, and they call it love. Once you've felt what it means to love as you and I know it - the total passion for the total height - you are unable of anything else.

Ayn Rand

The love that follows us sometime is our trouble, which still we thank as love.

William Shakespeare
