"A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people."
The world is not what it seems to be; it is what we believe it to be.
"The past is a script we can’t stop rewriting."
"Wir sind nicht nur verantwortlich für das, was wir tun, sondern auch für das, was wir nicht tun."
"History is not just what happened, but what we remember and how we remember it."
"A good story is like a mirror that reflects the hidden corners of our souls."
Truth is not found in the light, but in the shadows where we dare not look.
We do not see things as they are; we see them as we are.
"Writing is the closest thing we have to magic."
"The past is never dead; it’s not even past until we’ve written it."
"The truth is not in the facts, but in the way we tell them."
Writing is a way to understand what I cannot understand.
"Reality is a cliché from which we escape by metaphor."
"Silence is the perfectest herald of joy: I were but little happy, if I could say how much."
We are all trapped by our own narratives.
I used to think the world was broken down by tribes. Then I thought it was broken down by rich and poor. Then I thought it was broken down by stupid and smart. But I know now that it is broken down by people who are alive and people who are dead.
I don't believe in ghosts, but I see them all the time.
