“When I get tired, and I don't think I have another ounce of energy left, I just cling to God's hem.
~Mama Sato”
― Kiyo Sato, Kiyo's Story: A Japanese-American Family's Quest for the American Dream

“In order to be successful in any undertaking, I think the main thing is for one to grow to the point where he completely forgets himself; that is, to lose himself in a great cause. In proportion as one loses himself in this way, in the same degree does he get the highest happiness out of his work.”
― Booker T. Washington, Up from Slavery

“A person who never suffers has no chance to become strong in mind and body. ~ Tochan Sayo”
― Kiyo Sato

“At the still point of the turning world. Neither flesh nor fleshless;
Neither from nor towards; at the still point, there the dance is,
But neither arrest nor movement. And do not call it fixity,
Where past and future are gathered. Neither movement from nor towards,
Neither ascent nor decline. Except for the point, the still point,
There would be no dance, and there is only the dance.”
― T.S. Eliot
