"I am not the man I was when I failed,

but I wouldn't be who I am without those failures.

I didn't evolve despite my darkness;

I evolved because I faced it,

understood it, and refused to let it define me."

~ Gideon Smith ~

“Read books. Be interested in things. 

Get excited. Try not to be too hard 

on yourself. Enjoy the ever-present 

game of knowledge.”

~ Hank Green ~

“If you truly listen, if you pay attention

to the poignant beauty of the world,

your heart will often break.

In fact, your heart is made to break;

its purpose is to open itself again and 

again so that it can hold ever more wonders.”

~ Andrew Harvey ~
