“The bell still rings for all who truly believe”
― Chris Van Allsburg, The Polar Express

“At a time like this, scorching irony, not convincing argument, is needed. O! had I the ability, and could reach the nation's ear, I would, to-day, pour out a fiery stream of biting ridicule, blasting reproach, withering sarcasm, and stern rebuke. For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. The feeling of the nation must be quickened; the conscience of the nation must be roused; the propriety of the nation must be startled; the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed; and its crimes against God and man must be proclaimed and denounced.”
― Frederick Douglass

“Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see.”
― Chris Van Allsburg, The Polar Express

“Stay curious, stay weird, stay kind and don't let anyone ever tell you you aren't smart or brave or worthy enough.”
― Alex Hirsch, Gravity Falls: Journal 3
