“لقد كنت عبقرياً في الأحلام أكثر مما في الحياة، هذه هي مأساتي، كنت العدّاء الذي سقط تقريباً عند خط الوصول، وكان الأول قبل سقوطه!”
― فرناندو بيسوا, يوميات

“A wave of saudade swept over me as I realized home never existed at all. The concept of home felt far from my reach, and I felt sick with longing.”
― M.B. Dallocchio, The Desert Warrior

“It was surreal, how everything continued, how everything kept on after a person died. Shouldn’t time stop for grief, even for a moment, so one might catch their breath before things started moving again?”
― Paulette Kennedy, The Witch of Tin Mountain

“As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to realize that home is less about the place you live, and more about the people who love you. The memories you make. The laughter and tears and all the moments in between.”
― Paulette Kennedy, The Witch of Tin Mountain
