― Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods

“Only years of practice will teach you the mysteries and bold certainty of a real gardener, who treads at random, yet tramples on nothing.”

“A baptism of fire, the Witcher thought, furiously striking and parrying blows. I was meant to pass through fire for Ciri.

― Andrzej Sapkowski, Chrzest ognia
