There is no poetry where there are no mistakes.

Joy Harjo

Like colors or a spring tree against that kind of blue sky that pulls your heart out through your eyes. Pretty things will swarm you like that, like your heart was a hive of electric bees.

Katherine Dunn

A bone to the dog is not charity. Charity is the bone shared with the dog, when you are just as hungry as the dog.

Jack London

A thinker sees his own actions as experiments and questions–as attempts to find out something. Success and failure are for him answers above all.

Friedrich Nietzsche

We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust.

Rumi
