All good is hard. All evil is easy. Dying, losing, cheating, and mediocrity is easy. Stay away from easy.
Scott Alexander

A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
Emily Dickinson

Not knowing when the dawn will come I open every door.
Emily Dickinson

You have to fall before you fly
Gotta feel the pain before you cry
Then comes the moment when u can fly away
Light a flightless bird, free and on it’s way, to a better place.
