Rosamund Lupton
“It makes the other one more precious and also not enough. We have to try to fill not only our own boots but other people's too - yours, Leo's, Dad's. We have to expand at the moment we feel the most shrunk.”
― Rosamund Lupton, Sister

Mahatma Gandhi
“Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.”
― Mahatma Gandhi

“First they ignore you. Then they ridicule you. And then they attack you and want to burn you. And then they build monuments to you.”
― Nicholas Klein

“There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”
― John Holmes

Victor Hugo
“His ideas assumed a kind of stupefied and mechanical quality which is peculiar to despair.”
― Victor Hugo
