“When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready.

― Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”
