William Shakespeare
“Let me be that I am and seek not to alter me.”
William Shakespeare, Much Ado About Nothing

Ray Bradbury
“And what, you ask, does writing teach us?

First and foremost, it reminds us that we are alive and that it is gift and a privilege, not a right. We must earn life once it has been awarded us. Life asks for rewards back because it has favored us with animation.

So while our art cannot, as we wish it could, save us from wars, privation, envy, greed, old age, or death, it can revitalize us amidst it all.”
Ray Bradbury, The October Country

Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.”
Emerson

“Poetry is a life-cherishing force. For poems are not words, after all, but fires for the cold, ropes let down to the lost, something as necessary as bread in the pockets of the hungry.”
Mary Oliver, A Poetry Handbook

William Shakespeare
“For there was never yet philosopher that could endure the toothache patiently.”
William Shakespeare
