Magica Quartet quote #125 from Puella Magi Madoka Magica

Miki-san... do you truly want that persons dream to come true Or is it that you want to be that persons savior for making that dream come true If youre going to fulfill someone elses dream thats the time when its most important to be sure you know your own wish. The two might seem the same but theyre entirely different.

George Mallory quote #129 from Climbing Everest: The Complete Writings of George Mallory

People ask me What is the use of climbing Mount Everest and my answer must at once be It is of no use.There is not the slightest prospect of any gain whatsoever. Oh we may learn a little about the behaviour of the human body at high altitudes and possibly medical men may turn our observation to some account for the purposes of aviation. But otherwise nothing will come of it. We shall not bring back a single bit of gold or silver not a gem nor any coal or iron... If you cannot understand that there is something in man which responds to the challenge of this mountain and goes out to meet it that the struggle is the struggle of life itself upward and forever upward then you wont see why we go. What we get from this adventure is just sheer joy. And joy is after all the end of life. We do not live to eat and make money. We eat and make money to be able to live. That is what life means and what life is for.

André Aciman quote #33 from Call Me by Your Name

What I wanted to preserve was the turbulent gasp in his voice which lingered with me for days afterward and told me that if I could have him like this in my dreams every night of my life Id stake my entire life on dreams and be done with the rest. p. 109

Cheryl Strayed quote #107 from Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar

Whats important is that you make the leap. Jump high and hard with intention and heart. Pay no mind to the vision that the commission made up. Its up to you to make your life. Take what you have and stack it up like a tower of teetering blocks. Build your dream around that.
