All quotes βWe rely upon the poets, the philosophers, and the playwrights to articulate what most of us can only feel, in joy or sorrow. They illuminate the thoughts for which we only grope; they give us the strength and balm we cannot find in ourselves. Whenever I feel my courage wavering, I rush to them. They give me the wisdom of acceptance, the will and resiliance to push on.

It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world. Without such love, oneβs dreams would have no meaning.
