Rick Yancey
“We'd stared into the face of Death, and Death blinked first. You'd think that would make us feel brave and invincible. It didn't.”
― Rick Yancey, The 5th Wave

Thomas Merton
“When you expect the world to end at any moment, you know there is no need to hurry. You take your time, you do your work well.”
― Thomas Merton
