“Cherish your visions.
Cherish your ideals.
Cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts.

― James Allen, As a Man Thinketh

“As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world.”
