Henry David Thoreau
“The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things..”
Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobedience and Other Essays

“If you wish to find yourself, you must first admit you are lost.”
Brian Rathbone, Call of the Herald

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Let yourself be drawn by the stronger pull of that which you truly love.”
