| 0393f6f | The end of the story is of your making, nobody else's. You can do with it as you choose. There are as many paths open to your hero as branches on a great tree. They are wonderful, and terrible, and plain and twisted. They touch and part and intermingle, and you can follow them whatever way you will. | Juliet Marillier | ||

| 40ba18e | To say that is to say we have no choice at all in what we do, how we live. I don't believe that, Uncle. Perhaps we do have a short span in this world [...]; perhaps our scope is somewhat limited. But within those limits we do have the power to change things, the power to make choices and to go where we must. | Juliet Marillier | ||
| 62e621e | You know not, yet, the sort of love that strikes like a lightning bolt, that clutches hold of you by the heart, as irrevocably as death; that becomes the lodestar by which you steer the rest of your life . . . it is in the nature of your kin, to love this way. | Juliet Marillier | ||
| 3eee1d9 | it matters not if you are here, or there, for I see you before me every moment. I see you in the light on the water, in the swaying of the young trees in the spring wind. I see you in the shadows of the great oaks, I hear your voice in the cry of the owl at night. You are the blood in my veins, and the beating of my heart. You are my first waking thought, and my last sigh before sleeping. You are - you are bone of my bone, and breath of my .. | Juliet Marillier | ||

"Traveled here with her. Fixed the place up for her. I look after her. That enough for you?" After what seemed to me a carefully judged pause, he added, "My lord?" | Juliet Marillier | ||

| 37d3f1b | He used to say, God is everywhere. In the work of your hands; in the beating of a bird's wings; in the roots of an oak and in the stones of the riverbed. In the rising of the sun. In the heart of a man. In the wonders we know, and those that are beyond our knowing. | god inspiration nature-s-beauty | Juliet Marillier | |
| 66bc687 | A story could lead you into a different world for a while. It might be a world where a foolish youngest son could turn into a brave and clever hero, or a beaten young woman could end up as a wise leader of folk. And when the story was ended and that world was gone, you still had the idea of it inside you. Like a flame that didn't go out even when the bad things rattled and swirled and screamed, and worse, oh, much worse, when they whispered.. | power-of-story stories tales | Juliet Marillier | |

| b9bca1f | And they say, if ever a traveler plucks the wild parsley, and takes the bark of the hazel tree, and the secret toadstools, and mixes them with crocus from the patch of forest where the hero's last bones lie, a powerful spell will come to life. The hero will be reborn, not as he was before his destruction, but many times stronger in body and spirit; for he will be filled with the strength of earth, sea, and air.

| 1bdcd82 | P]laces that seem lovely at first glance may actually be sinister, but places that feel sinister seldom turn out to be lovely. | Andrew Solomon | ||
| 1f857e4 | A witness can be of more value than a policy analyst. An amateur witness, free of conceptual bias, sometimes sees the plainest truth. One should never be blinded by tailoring. | Andrew Solomon | ||
| 49ca13e | A crushed hope is suffused with a nobility that mere hopelessness can never know. | Andrew Solomon | ||
| 2b2fa12 | You can't fit in with people by pretending to be just like they are; you fit in by engaging in a dialogue about your differences, and by putting aside the assumption that your way of life is in any way preferable to theirs. | Andrew Solomon | ||

| efefdff | It is my experience that the hard numbers are the ones that lie. The matters that they describe cannot be defined so clearly.

| b93d622 | Perhaps depression can best be described as emotional pain that forces itself on us against our will, and then breaks free of its externals. Depression is not just a lot of pain; but too much pain can compost itself into depression. Grief is depression in proportion to circumstance; depression is grief out of proportion to circumstance.

| 87e619b | An integrated educational system benefits many people with horizontal identities; it likewise helps those who share a classroom with them. Similarly, building a compassionate society benefits not only those who are newly tolerated, but also those who are newly tolerating. Incorporating exceptional people into the social fabric is expensive and time-consuming. The emotional and logistical calisthenics can be draining. Yet if parents often en.. | Andrew Solomon | ||
| 1a0128b | Prozac doesn't do it unless we help it along. Listen to the people who love you. Believe that they are worth living for even when you don't believe it. Seek out the memories depression takes away and project them into the future. Be brave; be strong; take your pills. Exercise because it's good for you even if every step weighs a thousand pounds. Eat when food itself disgusts you. Reason with yourself when you have lost your reason. | Andrew Solomon | ||
| 6dfa5c8 | There is a basic emotional spectrum from which we cannot and should not escape, and I believe that depression is in that spectrum, located near not only grief but also love. Indeed I believe that all the strong emotions | Andrew Solomon | ||

| 45ac4d4 | El analfabetismo y la pobreza son discapacidades, como tambien lo son la imbecilidad, la obesidad y la apatia. La fe es una discapacidad en la medida en que restringe el interes personal; el ateismo es una discapacidad, puesto que es una coraza contra la esperanza. Incluso el poder puede considerarse una discapacidad por el aislamiento al que condena a quienes lo ejercen. | Andrew Solomon | ||

| 6f797e5 | A Buddhist scholar once explained to me that most Westerners mistakenly think that Nirvana is what you arrive at when your suffering is over and only an eternity of happiness stretches ahead.
