“Nothing
would be
easier without
you,
because you
are
everything,

“Not only did
I love her,
but I could tell

her, too.

her hair.”
― Christopher Poindexter

“A book, too, can be a star, “explosive material, capable of stirring up fresh life endlessly,” a living fire to lighten the darkness, leading out into the expanding universe.”
― Madeleine L'Engle, A Wrinkle in Time
