1. Character has far more to do with determining history than history has to do with determining character.
- George Macdonald
2. It is our choices, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
- J.K. Rowling
3. It's life that matters, nothing but life - the process of discovering - the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself at all.
- Virginia Wolf
4. But it is not the rich man only who is under the dominion of things; they too are slaves who, having no money, are unhappy from the lack of it.
- George Macdonald
5. Do you know how it is with love? First comes delight: then pain: then fruit. And then there is joy of the fruit, but that is different again from the first delight. And mortal lovers must not try to remain at the first step: for lasting passion is the dream of a harlot and from it we wake in despair. You must not try to keep the raptures: they have done their work. Manna kept, is worms.
- C.S. Lewis
