Astrid Lindgren
“A childhood without books – that would be no childhood. That would be like being shut out from the enchanted place where you can go and find the rarest kind of joy.”
Astrid Lindgren

Hideaki Sorachi
“Weep and ask for help.
Lean on me with your runny nose.
Cry when you feel like crying.
Laugh when you feel like laughing.
When you’re tearing up with an ugly face,
I’ll give you a good cry with an uglier face.
When you’re laughing so hard your stomach hurts,
I’ll laugh in a louder voice.
That’s how it should be.
It’s far better to get dirty while living true to yourself,
than to throw away yourself and die a clean death.”
— Sakata Gintoki”
Sorachi Hideaki

Kahlil Gibran
“song of the rain
iam dotted silverthreads dropped from heaven by the gods ,nature then takes me to adornher fields and valleys
iam beautiful pears plucked from the crown of ishtar by the daugter of down to embellish the garden
when icry the hills laugh when i humble my self the flower rejoice when i bow all the things are elated”
Gibran khalil Gibran

“If you run into a wall and pretend it doesn't exist, you'll never make any progress. The wall will never change. so you're the one who has to change.”
