James  Patterson
“I feel like, like pudding," Iggy groaned. "Pudding with nerve endings. Pudding in great pain.”
James Patterson, The Angel Experiment

Mahatma Gandhi
“It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.”
Mahatma Gandhi
