“You can't be the rock and the river, Sam."
"The rock is high ground...Solid. Immovable."
"The river is motion, turmoil, rage. As the river flows, it wonders what it would be like to be so still, to take breath, to rest. But the rock will always wonder what lies around the bend in the stream."
"I want to be both," I whispered.”
― Kekla Magoon, The Rock and the River

“Adults do not talk to us—they give us directions. They issue orders without providing information.”
― Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eye

“I’ve always known, on a purely intellectual level, that our separateness and isolation are an illusion. We’re all made of the same thing—the blown-out pieces of matter formed in the fires of dead stars.”
― Blake Crouch, Dark Matter

“He who hurries through life hurries to his grave.”
― George R.R. Martin, A Clash of Kings
