β€œSaying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself.”
- John Green.

Dear friends,

They say life is the greatest story ever told. If that's true, then every person we meet is a unique book. And the most beautiful thing is that our stories are always being written, and the best people in our lives are like favorite
volumes we return to, discovering new depth each time.

As the final chapter of this year turns I want to wish that you find new stories that
inspire you, and may you 'reread' the cherished people and memories that give your life its deepest meaning.

Here's to turning the page together. See you in the New Year. Love you all! ❀️

β€œIf you aim to be something you are not, you will always fail. Aim to be you. Aim to look and act and think like you. Aim to be the truest version of you. Embrace that you-ness. Endorse it. Love it. Work hard at it. And don't give a second thought when people mock it or ridicule it. Most gossip is envy in disguise.”
- Matt Haig, The Midnight Library.

β€œOf course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.”
- Antoine de Saint-ExupΓ©ry.

β€œThe arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possible can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.”
- Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country.

β€œThey arrived by achieving the impossible,” he answered. β€œThey did such blazing, glorious work as to burn to ashes those that opposed them. They arrived by course of miracle, by winning a thousand-to-one wager against them. They arrived because they were Carlyle’s battle-scarred giants who will not be kept down. And that is what I must do; I must achieve the impossible.”
β€œBut if you fail? You must
consider me as well, Martin.”
β€œIf I fail?” He regarded her for a moment as though the thought she had
uttered was unthinkable.”

β€œI wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says, "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.”

β€œI did not know that I could ever feel what I have felt, he thought. Nor that this could happen to me. I would like to have it for my whole life. You will, the other part of him said. You will. You have it now and that is all your whole life is; now.
There is nothing else than now. There is neither yesterday,
certainly, nor is there any tomorrow. How old must you be before you know that? There is only now, and if now is only two days, then two days is your life and everything in it will be in proportion. This is how you live a life in two days. And if you stop complaining and asking for what you never will get, you will have a good life.”
- Ernest Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls.
