There are as many worlds as there are kinds of days, and as an opal changes its colors and its fire to match the nature of a day, so do I.
–John Steinbeck

True education is a kind of never ending story — a matter of continual beginnings, of habitual fresh starts, of persistent newness.
–J.R.R. Tolkien

–Jennifer E. Smith, The Geography of You and Me

The splendid thing, about falling apart, silently…, is that, you can start over, as many times, as you like.
–Sanober Khan, A Thousand Flamingos

To new beginnings. To the pursuit of…somethingness.
