J.K. Rowling
“I would like to be remembered as someone who did the best she could with the talent she had.”
J.K. Rowling

Robyn Schneider
“Life is the tragedy,' she said bitterly. 'You know how they categorize Shakespeare's plays, right? If it ends with a wedding, it's a comedy. And if it ends with a funeral, it's a tragedy. So we're all living tragedies, because we all end the same way, and it isn't with a goddamn wedding.”
Robyn Schneider, The Beginning of Everything

Stephen Chbosky
“This moment will just be another story someday.”
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

“no, no, it's not all random, if it really was all random, the universe would abandon us completely. and the universe doesn't. it takes care of its most fragile creations in ways we can't see. like with parents who adore you blindly. and a big sister who feels guilty for being human over you. and a little gravelly-voiced kid whose friends have left him over you. and even a pink-haired girl who carries your picture in her wallet. maybe it is a lottery, but the universe makes it all even out in the end. the universe takes care of all its birds.”
R.J. Palacio, Wonder

Khaled Hosseini
“It's wrong what they say about the past, I've learned, about how you can bury it. Because the past claws its way out.”
Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner
