Patti Callahan Henry
“I’d believed— fool that I was— that because I knew this end was coming, I was prepared, that I would not grieve as I had. As if one can pre-grieve and get it out of the way. It’s not true. Grief is the price I paid for loving fiercely, and that was okay, because there was no other choice but to love fiercely and fully.”
Patti Callahan, Once Upon a Wardrobe

“Love is never wasted, for its value does not rest on reciprocity.”
C.S. Lewis

“In winter, you are never more than a few steps from darkness.”
Katherine May, Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat in Difficult Times

Carolyn Leiloglou
“Art expresses beauty and truth," Georgia said. "It's a gift. It's meant to be experienced and interacted with not used. That's what's so gross about what the Distortionists do. They use art instead of making it or even enjoying it. They turn art into propaganda.”

G.K. Chesterton
“Facts,” murmured Basil, like one mentioning some strange, far-off animals, “how facts obscure the truth.

I may be silly—in fact, I'm off my head—but I never could believe in that man—what's his name, in those capital stories?—Sherlock Holmes. Every detail points to something, certainly; but generally to the wrong thing.

Facts point in all directions, it seems to me, like the thousands of twigs on a tree. It's only the life of the tree that has unity and goes up—only the green blood that springs, like a fountain, at the stars.”
G. K. Chesterton, The Club of Queer Trades Illustrated
