Love is like a narcotic. At first it brings the euphoria of complete surrender. The next day, you want more. You’re not addicted yet, but you like the sensation, and you think you can still control things. You think about the person you love for two minutes, and forget them for three hours. But then you get used to that person, and you begin to be completely dependent on them. Now you think about him for three hours and forget him for two minutes. If he’s not there, you feel like an addict who can’t get a fix. And just as addicts steal and humiliate themselves to get what they need, you’re willing to do anything for love.	Paulo Coelho
Truly fine poetry must be read aloud. A good poem does not allow itself to be read in a low voice or silently. If we can read it silently, it is not a valid poem: a poem demands pronunciation. Poetry always remembers that it was an oral art before it was a written art. It remembers that it was first song.	Jorge Luis Borges
To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.	J.K. Rowling
It is not the failure of others to appreciate your abilities that should trouble you, but rather your failure to appreciate theirs.	Confucius
There is only one class in the community that thinks more about money than the rich, and that is the poor.	Oscar Wilde
