“The ships, ever bigger, ever more powerful, ever more majestic, were the badge of spirit for mankind.

At least... sailors think so.

For bakers, it's the bread that rises in their ovens that mankind should pay attention to.”
― Diane Carey, Ghost Ship

“No man is brave that has never walked 100 miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, bitter as medicine and crueler than mirror glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than 100 years of quiet introspection.”
― Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

“School is not a place where students come to listen to lectures, fill in worksheets, and endure boredom. Nor is it a place reserved for those who can tolerate the drab and dirty look of many schools.

School is a concept wherein students are welcome to learn and enhance the quality of their lives without fear of intimidation or harm, guided by hospitable and caring people in a clean and orderly environment.”
― Harry K. Wong, THE First Days of School: How to Be an Effective Teacher, 5th Edition

“People often surprise me, but not usually in a good way.”
― Brian Herbert, Mentats of Dune
