Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are.
Stoop and you'll be stepped on; stand tall and you'll be shot at.
Courage is the art of being the only one who knows you're scared to death.
I have to say that although it broke my heart, I was, and still am, glad I was there.
—Markus Zusak in The Book Thief
Love grows more tremendously full, swift, poignant, as the years multiply.
When I was younger, I could remember anything, whether it had happened or not.
To have a right to do a thing is not at all the same as to be right in doing it.
