    J.R.R. Tolkien
    “All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.”
    ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

    Virginia Woolf
    “A real razão continua inescrutável - a leitura nos dá prazer. É um prazer complexo e um prazer difícil; varia de época para época e de livro para livro. Mas ele é suficiente. Na verdade, o prazer é tão grande que não se pode ter dúvidas de que sem ele o mundo seria um lugar muito diferente e muito inferior ao que é. Ler mudou, muda e continuará mudando o mundo.”

I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
