“You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone's soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows that they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift.”
― Erin Morgenstern, The Night Circus

“Remember, you have the right to be proud; remember, you have the right to be you.”
― Dean Atta, The Black Flamingo

“For anyone who wants it all,” she begins, “may you find something that is more than enough.”

“I was wrong. It's not all for nothing. We're more than a pile of bones.' We're this moment. And the last. And every memory we've ever made. Every recording. Every note. Everything we've created and the lives we've touched. We're our choices, our bravery, our sacrifices. We're forgiveness and strength and the tears we've shed. We're the friendships we've built and the love we've shared. Time might go on without us and our cells might wither to dust, but that doesn't diminish our existence. We all leave a mark on this world.”
― Diana Urban, Under the Surface
