M.R. Carey
“Even the air seems to have a smell - earthy and rich and complicated, made out of things living nd things dying and things long dead. The smell of the world where nothing stops moving, nothing stays the same.”
M.R. Carey, The Girl with All the Gifts

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Angie Thomas
“Once upon a time there was a hazel-eyed boy with dimples. I called him Khalil. The world called him a thug.
He lived, but not nearly long enough, and for the rest of my life I'll remember how he died.
Fairy tale? No. But I'm not giving up on a better ending.”
Angie Thomas, The Hate U Give

Tahar Ben Jelloun
“Wir hatten keine Namen mehr, weder Vergangenheit noch Zukunft.”
Tahar ben Jelloun, تلك العتمة الباهرة

Richard Bach
“Ohne Bedenken brach er das Versprechen, das er sich selbst gegeben hatte. Derlei Schwüre gelten nur für Möwen, die mit dem Mittelmaß zufrieden sind. Wer einmal das Außerordentliche erfahren hat, kann sich nicht mehr an die Normen des Durchschnitts binden.”
Richard Bach
