“A truly good book…teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down and commence living on its hint. When I read an indifferent book, it seems the best thing I can do, but the inspiring volume hardly leaves me leisure to finish its latter pages. It is slipping out of my fingers while I read…What I began by reading I must finish by acting.”
― Henry David Thoreau

“Don't be beautiful, you irritating creature.”
― Nicole Galland, The Fool's Tale

“Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world.”
― Bette Midler
