“It is why a favorite book feels like an old friend and a new acquittance at the same time, and the reason a favorite author can be familiar figure and a mysterious stranger all at once.”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast

“If your mind is on a book, for example, you may see the world of the book around you, even if you are not reading at the time”
― Lemony Snicket, Poison for Breakfast

“It is a lifelong quest for more knowledge, more courage, more humility, and more belief. Because when you summon the strength and discipline to live like that, the only thing limiting your horizons is you.”
― David Goggins, Never Finished: Unshackle Your Mind and Win the War Within

“One could say, in fact, that no story really has a beginning, and that no story really has an end, as all of the world's stories are as jumbled as the items in the arboretum, with their details and secrets all heaped together so that the whole story, from beginning to end, depends on how you look at it. We might even say that the world is always in medias res - a Latin phrase which means "in the midst of things" or "in the middle of a narrative" - and that it is impossible to solve any mystery, or find the root of any trouble, and so The End is really the middle of the story”
― Lemony Snicket, The End
