“No matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself”
― Audrey Hepburn

“Although I cannot see your face
As you flip these poems awhile,
Somewhere from some far-off place
I hear you laughing--and I smile.”
― Shel Silverstein

“I opened my eyes
And looked up at the rain,
And it dripped in my head
And flowed into my brain,
And all that I hear as I lie in my bed
Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head.

I step very softly,
I walk very slow,
I can't do a handstand--
I might overflow,
So pardon the wild crazy thing I just said--
I'm just not the same since there's rain in my head.”
― Shel Silverstein, Where the Sidewalk Ends

“Some of these things are true and some of them lies. But they are all good stories.”
― Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall
