“I must talk, and you must listen, for we are engaged here in the most important pursuit in history: the search for meaning. What is the nature of being a person?

― John Green, Looking for Alaska

“Each book is a mind alive, a life revealed, a world awaiting exploration, but living people are all those things, as well—and more, because their stories haven’t yet been completely told.”
― Dean Koontz, Innocence

“Perhaps you have always known everything important but will need a lifetime to discover what you know.”
― Dean Koontz, Innocence
