What I began by reading, I must finish by acting.

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
- William Butler Yeats

The things of this world exist;

The things I want to know are in books;
my best friend is the man who'll get me a book I ain't read.

The important thing is this: to be able, at any moment,
to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.

Faith:
When you walk to the edge of all the light you have
and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown,

or, you will be taught how to fly
