Cannot be taken from us; it is a gift.”
― Dante Alighieri, Inferno

“They have cast my life like dice, in a game that is not a game. The unusual erupted into my life like a storm; I mean unusual in my actual perception of things. Do not mistake me; I never desired things that are certainly harder to bear, and nobody asked me if I really wanted an extraordinary life. That is not entirely true; I was asked, in the way a child seeing a cake is asked if he really wants to eat it.”
― Florian Armas, Io Deceneus: Journal of a Time Traveler

“In politics, stupidity is not a handicap.”
― Napoleon Bonaparte
