“The smitten rock that gushes, The trampled steel that springs; A cheek is always redder Just where the hectic stings!”
― Emily Dickinson, Poems by Emily Dickinson, Three Series, Complete

“And if I go,
while you're still here…
Know that I live on,
Vibrating to a different measure
Behind a thin veil you
cannot see through.
You will not see me,
So you must have faith.
I wait for the time when
we can soar together again,
Both aware of each other.
Until then,
live your life to the fullest
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart,
…I will be there”
― Colleen Corah Hitchcock

“If one man does not make a move, the other must, and by permitting the adversary to make the attack one learns something about him.”
― Agatha Christie, The Big Four

“So you must do right for the sake of the right, not in the hope of reward; you must work for the sake of the work, not in the hope of seeing the result; you must give yourself to the service of the world because you love it, and cannot help giving yourself to it.”
― Jiddu Krishnamurti, At the Feet of the Master
