"Wildness reminds us what it means to be human, what we are connected to rather than what we are separate from." ~Terry Tempest Williams
"I feel as though nothing mattered except just to be alive right at this moment." ~Elizabeth George Speare, (from The Witch of Blackbird Pond)

"I like flaws. I think they make things interesting." ~Sarah Dessen (The Truth about Forever)
