“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

“There were two things about Mama. One is she always expected the best out of me. And the other is that then no matter what I did, whatever I came home with, she acted like it was the moon I had just hung up in the sky and plugged in all the stars. Like I was that good.”
