“Look at the stars. It won't fix the economy. It won't stop wars. It won't give you flat abs, or even help you figure out your relationship. But it's important. It helps you to remember that you and your problems are both infinitesimally small and conversely, that you are a piece of an amazing and vast universe.”
― Kate Bartolotta

“No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.”
