Robert A. Heinlein
“Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.”
Robert A. Heinlein

Anaïs Nin

Anais Nin

Arundhati Roy

To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away.

“I believe that everything happens for a reason.

Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones
