“The moment of crisis had come, and I must face it. My old fears, my diffidence, my shyness, my hopeless sense of inferiority, must be conquered now and thrust aside. If I failed now I should fail forever.”
― Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

“I talk of you:
Why did you wish me milder? would you have me
False to my nature? Rather say I play
The man I am.”
― William Shakespeare, Coriolanus

“I am glad it cannot happen twice, the fever of first love. For it is a fever, and a burden, too, whatever the poets may say. They are not brave, the days when we are twenty one. They are so full of little cowardices, little fears without foundation, and one is so easily bruised, so swiftly wounded, one falls to the first barbed word.”
― Daphne du Maurier, Rebecca

“When you judge others, you do not define them, you define yourself”
― Earl Nightingale
