Hope Is Ambiguous, But Fear Is Precious.

The Hardest Part Of Growing Up Is Learning How To Wait

I Never Cease Being Dumbfounded By The Unbelievable Things People Believe.

I Came To Believe It Not True That "the Coward Dies A Thousand Deaths, The Brave Man Only One." I Think It Is The Other Way Around: It Is The Brave Who Die A Thousand Deaths. For It Is Imagination, And Not Just Conscience, Which Doth Make Cowards Of Us All. Those Who Do Not Know Fear Are Not Truly Brave.

It Is Not That Which Is Beautiful That Pleases Us, But That Which Pleases Is Is Called Beautiful.
