Rabindranath Tagore
“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.”
Rabindranath Tagore, Stray Birds

Frank Patrick Herbert
“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
Frank Herbert, Dune

Bobbie Ann Mason
“One day I was counting the cats and I absent-mindedly counted myself.”
Bobbie Ann Mason, Shiloh and Other Stories

Warren Zevon
“We love to buy books because we believe we're buying the time to read them.

[Inside Out (VH1)]”
Warren Zevon

Carlos Ruiz Zafón
“In the shop we buy and sell them, but in truth books have no owner. Every book you see here has been somebody’s best friend.”
Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
