“We're much closer together in the world today than we were in the past. Given that it is a much smaller world, we are in a stronger position to shape that world. As we enter the new century, and a new millennium, let us create a world in which there is no longer any war or any conflict.”
― John Hume

“Who hurt you, once,
so far beyond repair
that you would meet each overture
with curling lip?
While we, who knew you well,
your friends, (the focus of your scorn)
could see your courage in the face of fear,
your wit, and thoughtfulness,
and will remember you
with something close to love.”
― Louise Penny, Bury Your Dead

“OUR SECRETS ARE our most formidable adversaries. The older I get, the more I see secrecy as “the enemy within,” which blocks recovery not only for individuals but for society itself.”
― Patrick J. Kennedy, A Common Struggle: A Personal Journey Through the Past and Future of Mental Illness and Addiction

“Memory is a funny thing. It tricks you into believing that you've forgotten important moments, and then when you're raking your brain for a bit of information that might make sense of something else, it taps you on the head and says, "Remember when you told me to put that memory in the green rubbish bin? Well, I didn't, I put it in the black recycling tub, and it's coming your way again.”
― Melina Marchetta, Saving Francesca
