Maya Angelou
“When we give cheerfully and accept gratefully, everyone is blessed.”
Maya Angelou

Epicurus
“It is not so much our friends' help that helps us as the confident knowledge that they will help us.”
Epicurus

Epicurus
“You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.”
Epicurus

Ayn Rand
“It's easy to run to others. It's so hard to stand on one's own record. You can fake virtue for an audience. You can't fake it in your own eyes. Your ego is your strictest judge. They run from it. They spend their lives running. It's easier to donate a few thousand to charity and think oneself noble than to base self-respect on personal standards of personal achievement. It's simple to seek substitutes for competence--such easy substitutes: love, charm, kindness, charity. But there is no substitute for competence.”
Ayn Rand, The Fountainhead

Raquel Cepeda
“More than anything, this place feels familiar. I bury my hands in the hot sand and think about the embodiment of memory or, more specifically, our natural ability to carry the past in our bodies and minds. Individually, every grain of sand brushing against my hands represents a story, an experience, and a block for me to build upon for the next generation. I quietly thank this ancestor of mine for surviving the trip so that I could one day return.”
Raquel Cepeda, Bird of Paradise: How I Became Latina
