“My words fly up, my thoughts remain below: Words without thoughts never to heaven go.”
William Shakespeare, Hamlet

Rosemary Wells
“According to how gifted we are, we are all given a large or small key to this treasury of wonders. I have been blessed with a small key to the world of the young. It's a place where good and evil are clearly stamped. It's a place where the better part of human nature triumphs over tragedies, and where innocence rides high. It is a great pleasure to write there, because the young have what the rest of us only envy, and that is a belief in goodness and perpetual hope. ”
Rosemary Wells
