THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

“One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.”
–André Gide

“I used to think that nails-down-a-chalkboard was the worst sound in the world. Then I moved on to people-eating-cereal-on-the-phone. But only this week did I stumble across the rightful winner: it’s the sound of a baggage carousel coming to a grinding halt, having reunited every passenger on your flight with their luggage, except for you.”
–Sloane Crosley

“It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything.”
–Chuck Palahniuk
