“Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number.

― Alexis de Tocqueville

“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
― C.S. Lewis

“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“Well, here at last, dear friends, on the shores of the Sea comes the end of our fellowship in Middle-earth. Go in peace! I will not say: do not weep; for not all tears are an evil.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
