Steen Steensen Blicher
“Hvad ere en Naturbeskrivelse andet end en Oversaettelse? Endogså den meest vellykkede staaer ligesaalangt under Originalen som Himmelbjerget i Jylland under Himmelbjerget i Thibet. Derfor gunstige Læser! hav mig undskyldt, naar jeg ikke fortæller Dig alt hvad jeg her saae. Hvad jeg saae kunde jeg maaskee sige Dig: men hvorledes jeg saae det? Neppe! – Enkelthederne kunde jeg fremstille Dig een efter en anden, men Heelheden – alt paa eengang? – dertil – om “Du endog har Oere, har Tungen ikke Ord.” Min Pen er ingen Pensel. Rejs! Rejs selv til Himmelbjerget, og see!”
Steen Steensen Blicher

Cynthia Huntington
“It seems to me that the greatest adventure is to find a home in the world, particularly in the natural world, to earn a sense of belonging deeply to a place and to feel the deep response well up within you and become a part of you. When it is done, it can't be lost; the knowledge is as acute and sure as falling in love.”
Cynthia Huntington, The Salt House: A Summer on the Dunes of Cape Cod

Haruki Murakami
“We survived. You and I. And those who survive have a duty. Our duty is to do our best to keep on living. Even if our lives are not perfect.”
Haruki Murakami, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage

Astrid Lindgren
“I have never tried that before, so I think I should definitely be able to do that.”
Astrid Lindgren, Pippi Longstocking

Renée Toft Simonsen
“Når jeg læser, hvad de fandens præster siger om kærlighed, ved jeg, det er sandt. Kærlighed er ikke en følelse, man har for et andet menneske, det er noget, man beslutter sig for, og så er det hårdt arbejde resten af vejen.”
Renée Toft Simonsen, Renée - At finde hjem
