“Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone you may still exist, but you have ceased to live.”
― Mark Twain

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke

“A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”
― Mark Twain

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
― George Eliot
