Dorothy L. Sayers
“When a job is undertaken from necessity, or from a grim sense of disagreeable duty, the worker is self-consciously aware of the toils and pains he undergoes...But when the job is a labor of love, the sacrifices will present themselves to the worker--strange as it may seem--in the guise of enjoyment. Moralists, looking on at this, will always judge that the former kind of sacrifice is more admirable than the later, because the moralist, whatever he may pretend, has far more respect for pride than for love...I do not mean that there is no nobility in doing unpleasant things from a sense of duty, but only that there is more nobility in doing them gladly out of sheer love of the job.”
Dorothy L. Sayers, The Mind of the Maker: Dorothy L. Sayers' Witty Classic on the Trinity, Christianity, and Human Creativity

Jonathan Auxier
“As you know, children (unlike grown-ups) are far too clever to be tricked by impostors - a fact that goes a long way toward explaining their distrust of wicked stepmothers and substitute teachers.”
Jonathan Auxier, Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes

Jonathan Auxier
“Scheherazade’s Law: It is impossible to kill someone who is in the middle of telling you a really wonderful story.”
Jonathan Auxier, Sophie Quire and the Last Storyguard: A Peter Nimble Adventure

L.M. Montgomery
“Looking forward to things is half the pleasure of them. You mayn't get the things themselves but nothing can prevent you from having the fun of looking forward to them. - Anne Shirley”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

Michelle Obama
“I've learned that it's harder to hate up close.”
Michelle Obama, Becoming
