Harper Lee
“I think there's just one kind of folks. Folks.”
― Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

Harper Lee

― Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

J.R.R. Tolkien
“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Cassandra Clare
“I am a badass, and I recognize that you, too, are a badass.”
― Cassandra Clare

Jim Henson
“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.”
― Jim Henson
