Lao Tzu
“Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, it becomes your destiny.”
Lao Tzu

Cassandra Clare
“To them, as to Magnus, time was like rain, glittering as it fell, changing the world, but something that could also be taken for granted.”
Cassandra Clare, The Bane Chronicles

Erich Fromm
“Mature love is union under the condition of preserving one’s integrity, one’s individuality. Love is an active power in man; a power which breaks through the walls which separate man from his fellow men, which unites him with others; love makes him overcome the sense of isolation and separateness, yet it permits him to be himself, to retain his integrity. In love the paradox occurs that two beings become one and yet remain two.”
Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving
