“Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.”
― Rumi

“I am out with lanterns, looking for myself.”
― Emily Dickinson

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books.
In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
― Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

“Le travail éloigne de nous trois grands maux : l’ennui, le vice et le besoin.”
― Voltaire, Candide
