Daniel Keyes
“There are a lot of people who will give money or materials, but very few who will give time and affection.”
Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon

“Well, your princess isn't in another tower. She's dead.”
F.T. Lukens, So This Is Ever After

Thich Nhat Hanh
“If we look into this sheet of paper even more deeply, we can see the sunshine in it. If the sunshine is not there, the forest cannot grow. In fact, nothing can grow. Even we cannot grow without sunshine. And so, we know that the sunshine is also in this sheet of paper. The paper and the sunshine inter-are. And if we continue to look, we can see the logger who cut the tree and brought it to the mill to be transformed into paper. And we see the wheat. We know that the logger cannot exist without his daily bread, and therefore the wheat that became his bread is also in this sheet of paper. And the logger’s father and mother are in it too. When we look in this way, we see that without all of these things, this sheet of paper cannot exist.”
Thich Nhat Hanh, The Heart of Understanding: Commentaries on the Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra

I like it when somebody gets excited about something. It's nice.
“I like it when somebody gets excited about something. It's nice.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Harper Lee
“Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.”
Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
