“Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding. Find out what you already know and you will see the way to fly.”
― Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull

“Undeserved forgiveness. Friendship defined.”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Assassin

“When we are children, we believe that our elders know all and that even when we cannot understand the world, they can make sense of it. Even after we are grown, in moments of fear or sorrow, we still turn instinctively to the older generation, hoping to finally learn some great hidden lesson about death and pain. Only to learn instead that the only lesson is that life goes on.”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Assassin

“I lived my grief; I slept mourning and ate sorrow and drank tears. I ignored all else.”
― Robin Hobb, Fool's Assassin
