L.M. Montgomery
“Tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it... yet.”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

Stefan Zweig
“In this instant, shaken to her very depths, this ecstatic human being has a first inkling that the soul is made of stuff so mysteriously elastic that a single event can make it big enough to contain the infinite.”
Stefan Zweig, The Post-Office Girl

Stefan Zweig
“There’s an inherent limit to the stress that any material can bear. Water has its boiling point, metals their melting points. The elements of the spirit behave the same way. Happiness can reach a pitch so great that any further happiness can’t be felt. Pain, despair, humiliation, disgust, and fear are no different. Once the vessel is full, the world can’t add to it.”
Stefan Zweig, The Post-Office Girl

Sabahattin Ali
“Just as warm sunlight can, by passing through a lens, turn to fire, so too can love. It's wrong to see it as something that swoops in from the outside. It's because it arises from the feelings we carry inside us that it strikes with such violence, at the moment we least expect.”
Sabahattin Ali, Kürk Mantolu Madonna
