“It's impossible to defend oneself in the absence of goodwill”
― Franz Kafka, Amerika

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms...”
― Henry David Thoreau

“Sometimes a man cannot live up to the best idea he dared to have”
― Javier Merizalde

“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship.”
― Louisa May Alcott, Little Women
