David Foster Wallace
“Something happens to a novel as it ages, but what? It doesn’t ripen or deepen in the manner of cheese and wine, and it doesn’t fall apart, at least not figuratively. Fiction has no half-life. We age alongside the novels we’ve read, and only one of us is actively deteriorating. Which is to say that a novel is perishable only by virtue of being stored in such a leaky cask: our heads.”
― David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Homer
“Scepticism is as much the result of knowledge”
― Homer, The Odyssey

“…there’s never been a day that lasts forever, just as the sun sets, it will rise at dawn for ever after…’.”
― William Porter, Alcohol Explained

Oprah Winfrey
“The true meaning of courage is to be afraid—and then, with your knees knocking and your heart racing, take the leap anyway. Ready. Set. Go.”
― Oprah Winfrey, The Path Made Clear: Discovering Your Life's Direction and Purpose

“When you go out into the woods and you look at trees, you see all these different trees. And some of them are bent, and some of them are straight, and some of them are evergreens, and some of them are whatever. And you look at the tree and you allow it. You appreciate it. You see why it is the way it is. You sort of understand that it didn’t get enough light, and so it turned that way…The minute you get near humans, you lose all that… That judging mind comes in. And so I practice turning people into trees. Which means appreciating them just the way they are.’ – RAM DASS”
― Catherine Gray, The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober: Discovering a happy, healthy, wealthy alcohol-free life
