“Time is a slippery thing: lose hold of it once, and its string might sail out of your hands forever.”

“But it is not bravery; I have no choice. I wake up and live my life. Don't you do the same?”
― Anthony Doerr, All the Light We Cannot See

“By honing the sentences you used to describe the world, you changed the inflection of your mind, which changed your perceptions.”
