“I have not always chosen the safest path. I've made my mistakes, plenty of them. I sometimes jump too soon and fail to appreciate the consequences. But I've learned something important along the way: I've learned to heed the call of my heart. I've learned that the safest path is not always the best path and I've learned that the voice of fear is not always to be trusted.”

“You spend your life hoarding memories against the day you'll lack the energy to go out and make new ones, because that's the comfort of the old age. The ability to look back at your life and know that you left your mark on the world. But I'm losing my memories, it's like someone's broken into my piggy bank and is robbing me one penny at a time. It's happening so slowly, I can hardly tell what's missing.”
― Shaun David Hutchinson, We Are the Ants

“Τι να έκαναν οι άνθρωποι; Ευτυχώς επινοούσαν άπειρους τρόπους να αντέχουν τα αβάσταχτα, να συνηθίζουν τα δυσβάσταχτα, να συγχωρούν τα αδικαιολόγητα, να να ερμηνεύουν τα απίστευτα, να λένε τα ανείπωτα, κι όλα αυτά για να μη μένουν μόνοι· ήταν ανακούφιση να ξετρυπώνουν κάθε τόσο έναν καλό λόγο για να συνυπάρχουν με τους διαφορετικούς, ότι κι αν πρεσβεύανε.”
― Ιωάννα Καρυστιάνη, Μικρά Αγγλία

“People who are unable to stand within the dark places of life, those who are always running towards their happy places, are the same things as candles without flames. There is no worth in a candle without a flame, and we only add the flame when there is darkness. Without darkness, there would be no need for warriors and angels. Warriors are not made because the whole world is happy and angels were not formed because there are no demons. Be of worth, have a flame.”
