“You Did it begin with the sky holding back its rain like a fist stopping just short of your face, the slight rush of air on your jaw? You’d rather a thunderhead’s anvil stalking as you back into a room with a lock, because that actual fist clenched round a storm could let loose, break down the door. Now you’re stuck in the bathroom trying to retrace the map that got you here. You lean on the wall, slide to the floor as the shouting grows stronger, loud bang on the door. If you climbed out the window where would you go? How could you run carrying that heavy sky on your shoulders? —Kathleen Aguero”

“Chip the glasses and crack the plates!     Blunt the knives and bend the forks! That’s what Bilbo Baggins hates–     Smash the bottles and burn the corks! Cut the cloth and tread on the fat!     Pour the milk on the pantry floor! Leave the bones on the bedroom mat!     Splash the wine on every door! Dump the crocks in a boiling bowl;     Pound them up with a thumping pole; And when you’ve finished, if any are whole,     Send them down the hall to roll! That’s what Bilbo Baggins hates! So, carefully! carefully with the plates!”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

“Fear is the mind-killer.”
― Frank Herbert , Dune

“Mind is the Master power that moulds and makes, And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills, Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills:— He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass: Environment is but his looking-glass.”
― James Allen, As a Man Thinketh
