“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. Everyday, I walk myself into a state of well-being & walk away from every illness. I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it. But by sitting still, & the more one sits still, the closer one comes to feeling ill. Thus if one just keeps on walking, everything will be all right.”
― Søren Kierkegaard

“To see a World in a grain of sand,
And a Heaven in a wild flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand,
And Eternity in an hour.”
― William Blake, Auguries of Innocence

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
― Maya Angelou

“Sim, a selva era bela, majestosa, mesmo deslumbrante. E era rica, havia de ser fantasticamente rica também, mas um dia – um dia que vinha ainda longe. Entretanto, toda a sua grandeza esmagaria, toda a sua deslumbrância seria volúpia do primeiro contacto, logo desvanecida pela monotonia; e os anónimos desbravadores iriam caindo, inexoravelmente, sob as febres, trespassados pelas flechas envenenadas, desvairados pela ausência do amor – escravos, pobres, miseráveis, ali onde a natureza erguia as suas mais fastigiosas pompas!”
― Ferreira de Castro, A Selva
