“I fly because it releases my mind from the tyranny of petty things”
 Antoine de Saint-Exupery

“The paper burns, but the words fly away.”
 Ben Joseph Akiba

“Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.”
 Langston Hughes

“We are, each of us angels with only one wing; and we can only fly by embracing one another.”
 Luciano de Crescenzo

“How do geese know when to fly to the sun? Who tells them the seasons? How do we, humans know when it is time to move on? As with the migrant birds, so surely with us, there is a voice within if only we would listen to it, that tells us certainly when to go forth into the unknown.”
 Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

PUTTING WORDS DOWN ON PAPER


Beautiful, beautiful quotes. I absolutely love the one by Langston Hughes about dreams and, also, the one by Luciano about the angels. I will copy those two out!

Thank you for your comments, I appreciate them all!

Motto

"A story is not like a road to follow … it's more like a house. You go inside and stay there for a while, wandering back and forth and settling where you like and discovering how the room and corridors relate to each other, how the world outside is altered by being viewed from these windows. And you, the visitor, the reader, are altered as well by being in this enclosed space, whether it is ample and easy or full of crooked turns, or sparsely or opulently furnished. You can go back again and again, and the house, the story, always contains more than you saw the last time. It also has a sturdy sense of itself of being built out of its own necessity, not just to shelter or beguile you."
