“Stories? We all spend our lives telling them, about this, about that, about people … But some? Some stories are so good we wish they’d never end. They’re so gripping that we’ll go without sleep just to see a little bit more. Some stories bring us laughter and sometimes they bring us tears … but isn’t that what a great story does? Makes you feel? Stories that are so powerful … they really are with us forever.”
― Dustin Hoffman

Envy them that? Can it be a sin to know?

― Franklin D. Roosevelt

“The best kind of happiness is a habit you're passionate about.”
