excerpts from books i have read

'you have to live deliberately. you can't just sleepwalk throughout life hoping that someday you'll get around to doing what you really want to do.
that someday you'll realize your dreams. living always has to start from now.
*dream your dreams. you have dreams to look forward to. with them your soul will bloom."*
justina robinson ( *'s are mine, changed the wording a bit)

'one of those moments had arrived: Jack had been presented with the opportunity to be stupid in some way that was much more interesting than being shrewd would have been" neal stephenson

'for he has no humor boy. he does not see that we all do what we must to survive, some laugh, some cry, some bang the world with fists,some run.
but it all sums up the same: they make do.'
ray bradbury

'our greatest glory consists not in never falling down, but in rising in every time we fall'
ralph waldo emerson or Confucius
