“I could never play a small life, the possibilities are too big.”
Tess P., Secret Whispers: a collection of poetry exploring the light and dark within us all

“And sleep, that sometime shuts up sorrow's eye, Steal me awhile from mine own company.”
William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night’s Dream

“It has been said that books find their own readers—but sometimes they need someone to show them the way.”
Carsten Henn, The Door-to-Door Bookstore

“Love doesn't make the world go 'round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.”
Shannon Alder

“I'm not running away. But this is one corner of one country on one continent on one planet that's a corner of a galaxy that's a corner of a universe that is forever growing and shrinking and creating and destroying and never remaining the same for a single millisecond, and there is so much, so much, to see, Amy. Because it goes so fast. I'm not running away from things, I am running to them. Before they flare and fade forever.”
Chris Chibnall

“There are fixed points throughout time where things must stay exactly the way they are. This is not one of them, this is an opportunity. Whatever happens here will create its own timeline, its own reality, a temporal tipping point. The future revolves around you, here, now, so do good!”
The Doctor Chris Chibnall
