The curse of me and my nation is that we always think things can be bettered by immediate action of some sort, any sort rather than no sort.Plato
It's still scary every time I go back to the past. Each morning, my heart catches. When I get there, I remember how the light was, where the draft was coming from, what odors were in the air. When I write, I get all the weeping out.Maya Angelou

Self-pity in its early stage is as snug as a feather mattress. Only when it hardens does it become uncomfortable.Maya Angelou
A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?Kahlil Gibran
If in the twilight of memory we should meet once more, we shall speak again together and you shall sing to me a deeper song.Kahlil Gibran
No man can reveal to you nothing but that which already lies half-asleep in the dawning of your knowledge.Kahlil Gibran
