The best moments in reading are when you come across something – a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things – that you’d thought special, particular to you. And here it is, set down by someone else, a person you’ve never met, maybe even someone long dead. And it’s as if a hand has come out, and taken yours. -The History Boys

Have the courage to fail big and stick around. Make them wonder why you’re still smiling. -Elizabethtown

People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of their character. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
