“Sometimes love does not have the most honorable beginnings, and the endings, the endings will break you in half. It’s everything in between we live for.”
Ann Patchett, This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage

Tim O'Brien
“Why do our politicians put warnings on cigarette packs and not on their own foreheads?”
Tim O'Brien

“Never Give Up!”
Michael Parker

Rohinton Mistry
“But too long a sacrifice can make a stone of the heart, as my favourite poet has written.’ ‘Who’s that?’ ‘W. B. Yeats. And I think that sometimes normal behaviour has to be suppressed, in order to carry on.’ ‘I’m not sure,’ said Maneck. ‘Wouldn’t it be better to respond honestly instead of hiding it? Maybe if everyone in the country was angry or upset, it might change things, force the politicians to behave properly.”
Rohinton Mistry, A Fine Balance

“How can I keep silent? How can I stay quiet?
My friend, whom I loved, has turned to clay,
my friend Enkidu, whom I loved has turned to clay.
Shall I not be like him, and also lie down,
never to rise again, through all eternity?”
Anonymous, The Epic of Gilgamesh
