“Stories are, at the most basic level, how we make sense of the world.”
― A.J. Hackwith, The Library of the Unwritten

“End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path. One that we all must take.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

“Humans love to make things complicated. Look at belief. They build whole morality and judgment systems on it—who believes what, believes in the right way, believes strongly enough. It’s so unnecessary. Belief, when you get right down to it, is just a powerful story. Tell a story well, and the reader doesn’t just want it to be true—they know it is. Get enough souls to believe in a story, and you can change the world. Or make one.”
― A.J. Hackwith, The God of Lost Words

“Perfection of character is this: to live each day as if it were your last, without frenzy, without apathy, without pretence.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
