― Alan Bennett, The History Boys

“Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 6: Fables & Reflections

“If you are not in the process of becoming the person you want to be, you are automatically engaged in becoming the person you don't want to be. ”

― Stephen King
