― Emily Dickinson, Selected Letters

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”

“People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality.”
― Neil Gaiman

“It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end.”
