“No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.”
Tom Schulman, Dead Poets Society

Emily Henry
“I still have a lot to figure out, but the one thing I know is, wherever you are, that’s where I belong. I’ll never belong anywhere like I belong with you.”
Emily Henry, People We Meet on Vacation

N.H. Kleinbaum
“But poetry, romance, love, beauty? These are what we stay alive for!”
N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

N.H. Kleinbaum
“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”
N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society

Emily Henry
“It hurts to want it all, so many things that can't coexist within the same life.”
Emily Henry, People We Meet on Vacation
