Julian Barnes
“We live on the flat, on the level, and yet - and so - we aspire. Groundlings, we can sometimes reach as far as the gods. Some soar with art, others with religion; most with love. But when we soar, we can also crash. There are few soft landings. We may find ourselves bouncing across the ground with leg-fracting force, dragged towards some foreign railway line. Every love story is a potential grief story. If not at first, then later. If not for one, then for the other. Sometimes, for both.”
Julian Barnes, Levels of Life

Rachel Van Dyken
“You may not see every single piece of the puzzle that creates your life — you may not see every move the grand chess player makes — but know, He is in complete control of the game board. Sometimes certain pieces are moved or knocked over to make room for new ones. Other times, things happen because of the world we live in. But everything, in the end, will always turn out for good. It’s a nice promise, isn’t it? To know that there’s a reason for it all? A reason for your cancer — maybe by having cancer you’ve saved the lives of three of your best friends. Had you not been sick, would you have met them? Had you not been sick, would you have found the love of your life? Maybe it’s not in the perfection of life that things make sense, but in the chaos.”
Rachel Van Dyken, Ruin

“Will you tolerate
the strangeness inside of me,
the quirks of my soul?”
Tyler Knott Gregson

Abraham Lincoln
“Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.”
Abraham Lincoln

“have the power to make our stories wondrous—full of love, light, hope, and beauty. This is one of the main reasons you’ve been going to school all these years, and certainly one of the reasons you’re going off to college—the more educated you become, the more control you’ll have over your narratives. There is nothing in life more empowering, I assure you, than the ability”
Jill Cooper, The Yes Book
