“We like to believe, or pretend, we know what we are doing in our lives. It can be a lie. Winds blow, waves carry us, rain drenches a man caught in the open at night, lightning shatters the sky and sometimes his heart, thunder crashes into him bringing the awareness he will die.

― Guy Gavriel Kay, A Brightness Long Ago

“The evening's the best part of the day. You've done your day's work. Now you can put your feet up and enjoy it.”
