“It is easy to blame your lot in life on some outside force, to stop trying because you believe fate is against you. It is easy to think that where you were raised, how your parents treated you, or what school you went to is all that determines your future. Nothing could be further from the truth. The common people and the great men and women are all defined by how they deal with life’s unfairness: Helen Keller, Nelson Mandela, Stephen Hawking, Malala Yousafzai, and—Moki Martin. Sometimes no matter how hard you try, no matter how good you are, you still end up as a sugar cookie. Don’t complain. Don’t blame it on your misfortune. Stand tall, look to the future, and drive on!”
― William H. McRaven, Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World

“Slnko v tom osudnom roku, aj v rokoch neskorších, bolo naozaj nepoddajné. Odmietlo správať sa podľa norimberských zákonov a svietilo na všetkých.”
― Rudolf Jašík, Námestie svätej Alžbety

“Armageddon was yesterday, today we have a serious problem.”
― Stieg Larsson, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

“Beware The Court of Owls, that watches all the time, ruling Gotham from a shadowed perch, behind granite and lime. They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed, speak not a whispered word of them, or they'll send the Talon for your head.”
― Scott Snyder, Batman, Volume 1: The Court of Owls
