Kaiu Shirai
She’s reckless and unreasonable. She’s naive and immature. But… she is amazingly true to herself.
Kaiu Shirai, 約束のネバーランド 4 [Yakusoku no Neverland 4]

Jean-Christophe Valtat
It was the French of the Normans that, grafting itself onto the barbaric Saxon tongue, gave it its most magnificent blossoming. And, in these new countries, where both English and French are intertwined again, it is as if English were bathing itself in the fountain of its own youth, and as if French were remembering the buried treasures it had thought forgotten.
Jean-Christophe Valtat, Luminous Chaos
