“I say that ambition is absurd, and yet I remain in its thrall. It’s like being a slave all your life, then learning one day that you never had a master, and returning to work all the same.”
― Tom Rachman, The Imperfectionists

“Penned creatures suffer, but the more so when they imagine a pen what ain’t there”
― Lyndsay Faye, Jane Steele

“If there's something you really want in life - especially if it's something that scares you, or you think you don't deserve - you have to go after it and do it now. Or in not very long you'll be right: you won't deserve it.”
― Alena Graedon

“Destiny was funny stuff, he knew. You couldn’t trust it. Often you couldn’t even see it. Just when you knew you had it cornered, it turned out to be something else—coincidence, maybe, or providence. You barred the door against it, and it was standing behind you. Then just when you thought you had it nailed down it walked away with the hammer.”
― Terry Pratchett, Wyrd Sisters
