“We lay down our arms
so we can reach out our arms
to one another
We seek harm to none and harmony for all

That even as we hurt, we hoped
That even as we tired, we tried”
― Amanda Gorman, Call Us What We Carry

― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

“And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself?”
