Viktor E. Frankl
“Thus suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering is great or little. Therefore the 'size' of human suffering is absolutely relative".”
Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

Wilson Rawls
“Son, that's a pretty hard question to answer. But I do believe that any wish you make can come true if you help the wish. I don't think that the Lord meant for our lives to be so simple and easy that every time we wanted something, all we had to do was wish for it and we'd get it. I don't believe that at all. If that were true, there would be a lot of lazy people in this old world. No one would be working. Everyone would be wishing for what they needed or wanted.
"Papa," I asked, "how can you help a wish?"
"Oh, there are a lot of ways," Papa said. "Hard work, faith, patience, and determination. I think prayer and really believing in your wish can help more than anything else.”
Wilson Rawls, Summer of the Monkeys

Arthur Conan Doyle
“It's quite exciting," said Sherlock Holmes, with a yawn.”
Arthur Conan Doyle, A Study in Scarlet, A Study in Scarlet

Tina Traverse
“We Are brothers, tied by blood, in our veins, what we spill. But it is a deadly secret that will forever bind us.”
Tina Traverse, Destiny of the Vampire

H.G. Wells
“An animal may be ferocious and cunning enough, but it takes a real man to tell a lie.”
H.G. Wells, The Island of Dr. Moreau
