“There is such a powerful eloquence in silence. True genius is knowing when to say nothing, to allow the experience, the moment itself, to carry the message, to say what needs to be said. Words are less important, less effective than feeling. When you can sit in perfect silence with someone, you truly know how to communicate.”
― Richard Wagamese, Embers: One Ojibway's Meditations

“All things great are wound up with all things little.”
― Lucy Maud Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“It’s never an insult to be called what somebody thinks is a bad name. It just shows you how poor that person is, it doesn’t hurt you.”
― Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

“If it is not tempered by compassion, and empathy, reason can lead men and women into a moral void. (95)”
