John Irving
“I want to go on being a student," I told him. "I want to be a teacher. I'm just a reader," I said.

"DON'T SOUND SO ASHAMED," he said. "READING IS A GIFT."

"I learned it from you," I told him.

"IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU LEARNED IT- IT'S A GIFT. IF YOU CARE ABOUT SOMETHING, YOU HAVE TO PROTECT IT. IF YOU'RE LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND A WAY OF LIFE YOU LOVE, YOU HAVE TO FIND THE COURAGE TO LIVE IT.”
John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

Thich Nhat Hanh
“There is a Zen story about a man riding a horse that is galloping very quickly. Another man, standing alongside the road, yells at him, "Where are you going?" and the man on the horse yells back, "I don't know. Ask the horse." I think that is our situation. We are riding many horses that we cannot control.”
Thích Nhất Hạnh, Being Peace

I like it when somebody gets excited about something. It's nice.
“I like it when somebody gets excited about something. It's nice.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Herodotus
“Of all men’s miseries the bitterest is this: to know so much and to have control over nothing.”
Herodotus, The Histories

Jack Kerouac
“A pain stabbed my heart, as it did every time I saw a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too-big world.”
Jack Kerouac, On the Road
