To hope is to give yourself to the future - and that commitment to the future is what makes the present inhabitable.”
― Rebecca Solnit, Hope in the Dark: The Untold History of People Power

“As far as possible, join faith to reason.”
― Boethius

“If you beat your head against the wall, it is your head that breaks and not the wall.”
