“That's the beauty of it. Have you seen the contraptions these magicians build to accomplish the most mundane feats? They are a bunch of fish covered in feathers trying to convince the public they can fly, I am simply a bird in their midst.”
― Erin Morgenstern, The Night Circus

“When you write something, you focus your full attention on it. It’s almost impossible to write one thing while thinking about another. The act of putting it on paper keeps your thoughts and intentions aligned.”
― Blake Crouch, Dark Matter

“The wretch, concentred all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And, doubly dying, shall go down
To the vile dust, from whence he sprung,
Unwept, unhonored, and unsung.”
― Walter Scott, The Lay of the Last Minstrel

“Books arrive in our lives like gifts delivered by mysterious benefactors—a friend, an article, an e-mail, a store display. Something inside of you whispers, “You need to read this.” You sense that it contains messages and guidance you’ve been waiting for. It’s the answer to a prayer, a question, or a longing, sometimes especially those longings you haven’t allowed yourself to fully acknowledge or articulate. It’s as if your soul decides it wants the book before your mind can intervene. It recognizes a piece of the puzzle you’ve needed, and grabs it.”
