"For last year's words belong to last year's language
And next year's words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning."

- T. S. Eliot

In the Train

Fields beneath a quilt of snow
From which the rocks and stubble sleep
And in the west a shy white star
That shivers as it wakes from deep.

The restless rumble of the train,
The drowsy people in the car,
Steel blue twilight in the world,
And in my heart a timid star.

- Sara Teasdale

"A bouquet of clumsy words: you know the place between sleep and awake when you're still dreaming but it's slowly slipping? I wish we could feel like that more often. I also wish I could click my fingers three times and be transported to anywhere I like. I wish that people didn't always say "just wondering" when you both know there was a real reason behind them asking. And I wish I could get lost in the stars.

Listen: there's a hell of a good universe next door, let's go."

"I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what." - Atticus Finch

- Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird

"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies - God damn it, you've got to be kind."

- Kurt Vonnegut
