“Rebellion even in its smallest forms can eventually birth great change. With change comes hope.”
Catherine Adel West, Saving Ruby King

“There's no such thing as a perfect so make peace with that now. Save yourself a lot of tears later.”
Catherine Adel West, The Two Lives of Sara

“All have the potential to discover peace, turn it into something everlasting. But humans carry their sorrow and disappointment, their trials and tragedies. They drag them with them, ugly, battered luggage, opened and rummaged through for the sheer purpose of torturing themselves with unfortunate past actions.”

Topics Mentioning This Author

“Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Without books, the development of civilization would have been impossible. They are engines of change (as the poet said), windows on the world and lighthouses erected in the sea of time. They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print.

[Bulletin of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 34, No. 2 (Nov. 1980), pp. 16-32]”
Barbara Tuchman

“Be great in act, as you have been in thought.”
William Shakespeare, King John
