“I think that most of us, anyway, read these stories that we know are not "true" because we're hungry for another kind of truth: the mythic truth about human nature in general, the particular truth about those life-communities that define our own identity, and the most specific truth of all: our own self-story.

― Orson Scott Card, Ender’s Game

“A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.”
