The words with which a child’s heart is poisoned, whether through malice or through ignorance, remain branded in his memory, and sooner or later they burn his soul.
Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
“Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction.”
"Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn - that season of peculiar and inexhaustible influence on the mind of taste and tenderness - that season which has drawn from every poet worthy of being read some attempt at description, or some lines of feeling.” 🍂
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.
P 2
All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts
William Shakespeare
No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face.
Forests are like churches, hallowed places. There's a stillness about them, a sort of reverence.
I tried to discover, in the rumor of forests and waves, words that other men could not hear, and I pricked up my ears to listen to the revelation of their harmony.
There’s some good on this world - and it’s worth fighting for.
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
“Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?” . . That’s a good question, isn’t it? . .
