“Pulvis et umbra sumus. (We are but dust and shadow.)”
― Horace, The Odes of Horace

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“Unbeing dead isn't being alive.”
― E. E. Cummings

“What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the print I have read in my life.”
― Walt Whitman
