“No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name.

― Patrick Rothfuss

“I have a voice, too, and for good or evil mine is the speech that cannot be silenced”
― Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness

“Tall and straight I may appear, but I will always be Ada inside. A crooked little person trying to tell the truth. The power is in the balance: we are our injuries, as much as we are our successes”
― Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible
