“If you want to sing,
sing like today is your last.
If you want to dance,
dance like today is your last.
If you want to laugh,
laugh like today is your last.

If birds sing without worrying
about who is listening to them,
and monkeys dance without worrying
about who is watching them,
and hyenas laugh without worrying
about who is mocking them,
then you too must do what you do best
without worrying about who is ridiculing you.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo

“My books promised me that life wasn’t just made up of workday tasks and prosaic things. The world is bigger and more colorful and more important than that.”

“If you ask me what I want, I'll tell you. I want everything.”
― Kathy Acker
