David Nicholls
“You can live your whole life not realizing that what you're looking for is right in front of you.”
― David Nicholls, One Day

William Golding
“My yesterdays walk with me. They keep step, they are gray faces that peer over my shoulder.”
― William Golding

Thomas Merton
“The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image.”
― Thomas Merton, The Way of Chuang Tzu

J.R.R. Tolkien
“El camino sigue y sigue
desde la puerta.
El camino ha ido muy lejos,
y que otros lo sigan si pueden.
Que ellos emprendan un nuevo viaje,
pero yo al fin con pies fatigados
me volveré a la taberna iluminada,
al encuentro del sueño y el reposo.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien
“PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way.

GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.

PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?

GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.

PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.

GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings
