Elie Wiesel
“If the only prayer you say throughout your life is "Thank You," then that will be enough.”
Elie Wiesel

Don DeLillo
“Maybe when we die, the first thing we’ll say is, 'I know this feeling. I was here before.”
Don DeLillo, White Noise

Stephen Fry
“I think it was Donald Mainstock, the great amateur squash player who pointed out how lovely I was. Until that time I think it was safe to say that I had never really been aware of my own timeless brand of loveliness. But his words smote me, because of course you see, I am lovely in a fluffy moist kind of way and who would have it otherwise? I walk, and let’s be splendid about this, in a highly accented cloud of gorgeousness that isn't far short of being, quite simply terrific. The secret of smooth almost shiny loveliness, of the order of which we are discussing, in this simple, frank, creamy sort of way, doesn't reside in oils, unguents, balms, ointments, creams, astringents, milks, moisturizers, liniments, lubricants,
embrocations or balsams, to be rather divine for just one noble moment, it resides, and I mean this in a pink slightly special way, in ones attitude of mind.

To be gorgeous, and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely, all you have to do is believe that one is gorgeous and high and true and fine and fluffy and moist and sticky and lovely.

And I believe it of myself, tremulously at first and then with rousing heat and passion, because, stopping off for a second to be super again, I’m so often told it.

That’s the secret really.”
Stephen Fry, A Bit of Fry & Laurie

J.R.R. Tolkien
“There is a place called ‘heaven’ where the good here unfinished is completed; and where the stories unwritten, and the hopes unfulfilled, are continued. We may laugh together yet.”
J.R.R. Tolkien

Pablo Neruda
“Who writes your name in letters of smoke among the stars of the south?
Oh let me remember you as you were before you existed.”
Pablo Neruda, Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair
