“Everything will turn out right, the world is built on that.”
― Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita

“Masks beneath masks until suddenly the bare bloodless skull.”

“Procrastination is a lazy man's apology.”

“So, if you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it, that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward, then you won’t see why we go. What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is, after all, the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to enjoy life. That is what life means and what life is for.”
― George Mallory
