“Laugh and the world laughs with you, snore and you sleep alone.”
― anthony burgess

“It is nothing to die. It is frightful not to live.”
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.”
― Anatole France

“Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice. Instead of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet. That would mean that security is out of the question. The words "make" and "stay" become inappropriate. My love for you has no strings attached. I love you for free.”
― Tom Robbins, Still Life with Woodpecker
