“All of our days are numbered; we cannot afford to be idle. To act on a bad idea is better than to not act at all because the worth of the idea never becomes apparent until you do it. Sometimes this idea can be the smallest thing in the world, a little flame that you hunch over and cup with your hand and pray will not be extinguished by all the storm that howls about it. If you can hold on to that flame great things can be constructed around it that are massive and powerful and world changing – all held up by the tinniest of ideas.”
― Nick Cave

“That glorious vision of doing good is so often the sanguine mirage of so many good minds.”
― Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities

“Ἐσεῖς ποὺ βρήκατε τὸν ἄνθρωπό σας
κι ἔχετε ἕνα χέρι νὰ σᾶς σφίγγει τρυφερά,
ἕναν ὦμο ν᾿ ἀκουμπᾶτε τὴν πίκρα σας,
ἕνα κορμὶ νὰ ὑπερασπίζει τὴν ἔξαψή σας,

κοκκινίσατε ἄραγε γιὰ τὴν τόση εὐτυχία σας,
ἔστω καὶ μία φορά;
Εἴπατε νὰ κρατήσετε ἑνὸς λεπτοῦ σιγή
γιὰ τοὺς ἀπεγνωσμένους;”
― Ντίνος Χριστιανόπουλος

“The truth is, of course, that there is no journey. We are arriving and departing all at the same time.”
