“We all make mistakes but one has to move on.”
Jeffrey Archer

Daniel Keyes
“Thank God for books and music and things I can think about.”
Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon

Haruki Murakami
“I dream. Sometimes I think that's the only right thing to do.”

Roald Dahl
“A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.”
Roald Dahl, The Twits

“I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.

I walked a mile with Sorrow;
And ne’er a word said she;
But, oh! The things I learned from her,
When Sorrow walked with me.”
Robert Browning Hamilton
