“All men make mistakes, but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong … The only crime is pride. Sophocles”
Nick Clegg, How To Stop Brexit

“… be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and … try to love the questions themselves…. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now.

Katherine Robertson-Pilling, The Wheel of Creativity: Taking Your Place in the Adventure of Life
