“There is nothing else than now. There is neither yesterday, certainly, nor is there any tomorrow. How old must you be before you know that? There is only now, and if now is only two days, then two days is your life and everything in it will be in proportion. This is how you live a life in two days. And if you stop complaining and asking for what you never will get, you will have a good life. A good life is not measured by any biblical span.”
― Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

“One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

“Today is only one day in all the days that will ever be. But what will happen in all the other days that ever come can depend on what you do today.”
― Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls

“I want to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.”
― Mary Oliver, Owls and Other Fantasies: Poems and Essays
