Paul Atreides: The Sun Eating fire is your ambition: to swallow the flame down take it into your mouth and shoot it forth, a shout or an incandescent tongue, a word exploding from you in gold, crimson, unrolling in a brilliant scroll. To be lit up from within vein by vein. To be the sun. ― Margaret Atwood, Selected Poems 1: 1965-1975

“The things which the child loves remains in the domain of the heart until old age. The most beautiful thing in life is that our souls remain hovering over the places where we once enjoyed ourselves. I am one of those who remember those places regardless of time and place.”

— Kahlil Gibran, letter to Nakhli Gibran, 15 March 1908, Kahlil Gibran: A Self Portrait, ed. 7 transl. Anthony R. Ferris (Citadel, 1959)

having love and softness in your heart is never something to be ashamed of. giving and receiving kindness is what we are here for.
