“My past has not defined me, destroyed me, deterred me, or defeated me; it has only strengthened me.”
Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You: Reflections on Life and the Human Experience

Yukio Mishima
“An ugliness unfurled in the moonlight and soft shadow and suffused the whole world. If I were an amoeba, he thought, with an infinitesimal body, I could defeat ugliness. A man isn’t tiny or giant enough to defeat anything.”
Yukio Mishima, The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea

“Suddenly this defeat.
This rain.
The blues gone gray
And the browns gone gray

Jack Gilbert

Laurell K. Hamilton

Laurell K. Hamilton, A Stroke of Midnight
