Frances Hardinge
“Follow that coffeehouse.”
Frances Hardinge, Fly by Night

Neil Gaiman
“Nobody looks like what they really are on the inside. You don’t. I don’t. People are much more complicated than that. It’s true of everybody.”
Neil Gaiman, The Ocean at the End of the Lane

Brian K. Vaughan
“Anyone who thinks one book has all the answers hasn't read enough books.”
Brian K. Vaughan, Saga, Volume 6

David Whyte
“A true vocation calls us out beyond ourselves; breaks our heart in the process and then humbles, simplifies and enlightens us about the hidden, core nature of the work that enticed us in the first place.”
David Whyte

David Whyte
“The only choice we have as we mature is how we inhabit our vulnerability, how we become larger and more courageous and more compassionate through our intimacy with disappearance, our choice is to inhabit vulnerability as generous citizens of loss, robustly and fully, or conversely, as misers and complainers, reluctant and fearful, always at the gates of existence, but never bravely and completely attempting to enter, never wanting to risk ourselves, never walking fully through the door.”
David Whyte, Consolations: The Solace, Nourishment and Underlying Meaning of Everyday Words
