― Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
― Maya Angelou

“Most men fear getting laughed at or humiliated by a romantic prospect while most women fear rape and death.”
