Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;

“Yet these memories are impossible to forget, regardless of whether we actually lived through them. I believe they stay in our bodies. As sickness, as addiction, as poor posture or a tendency toward apology, as a deepened capacity for sadness or anger. As determination to survive, a relentless tempered optimism. I believe they are inherited, passed on to us like brown eyes or the shape of a nose.”
― Elizabeth Miki Brina, Speak, Okinawa: A Memoir

“As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.”
― Seneca
