Lemony Snicket
“I suppose I'll have to add the force of gravity to my list of enemies.”
Lemony Snicket, The Penultimate Peril

Robert Benchley
“Opera is when a guy gets stabbed in the back and, instead of bleeding, he sings.”
Robert Benchley

“...A person who is headstrong enough to open their eyes and their heart to the full depth and weight of the world is inviting in everything out there - both evil and good, both dark and light, and the sheer bravery of that openness enables them to gain profound insight into the human condition. It also fucks them up. It may even make them more prone to stick their head in an oven than to engage in self-promotional chitchat on Jay Leno.”
Patricia Pearson

Winifred Holtby
“And not there, not there, not there,
Your laughing face and your wind-blown hair
Leave not even a ghost in the garden.”
Winifred Holtby

Jack Kornfield
“In the end
these things matter most:
How well did you love?
How fully did you live?
How deeply did you let go?”
Jack Kornfield, Buddha's Little Instruction Book
