“I have claimed that Escape is one of the main functions of fairy-stories, and since I do not disapprove of them, it is plain that I do not accept the tone of scorn or pity with which 'Escape' is now so often used. Why should a man be scorned if, finding himself in prison, he tries to get out and go home? Or if he cannot do so, he thinks and talks about other topics than jailers and prison-walls?”
― J.R.R. Tolkien

“What a treacherous thing to believe that a person is more than a person.”
― John Green, Paper Towns

“Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.”
― Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire

“It's the job that's never started as takes longest to finish.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings
