Realini

“Remember that there is only one important time and it is Now. The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion. The most important person is always the person with whom you are, who is right before you, for who knows if you will have dealings with any other person in the future? The most important pursuit is making that person, the one standing at your side, happy, for that alone is the pursuit of life.”
― Leo Tolstoy, The Emperor's Three Questions

“The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there.”
― L.P. Hartley, The Go-Between

“Everybody's youth is a dream, a form of chemical madness.'
'How pleasant then to be insane!”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Diamond as Big as the Ritz, and Other Stories

“The person who doesn’t read lives only one life. The reader lives 5,000. Reading is immortality backwards.”
― Umberto Eco
