Paramahansa Yogananda
“Smile at the world with a smile from within…. Learn to be happy at will and to hold on to that happiness within, no matter what happens. Some people are absolutely crushed by their tests; others smile on in spite of their difficulties. Those who are unconquered in spirit are the real successes in life.”
Yogananda, Where There is Light: Insight and Inspiration for Meeting Life’s Challenges

Steven Decker
“If you hope for something, truly yearn for it from deep inside yourself, you have to try everything you can to make it come true. That’s the key to life, my young friend. You won’t always succeed, but knowing you’ve tried your best will carry you through. And sometimes, when you do succeed in making your hopes real, it allows all the beauty of being here on this earth to fill you up with joy.”
Steven Decker, Projector for Sale

William S. Burroughs
“There is no final enough of wisdom, experience - any fucking thing. No Holy Grail, No Final Satori, no solution. Just conflict. Only thing that can resolve conflict is love, like I felt for Fletch and Ruski, Spooner, and Calico. Pure love. What I feel for my cats past and present.”
William S. Burroughs

Max Nowaz
“Every night I dream a lot. Every day I live a little.”
Max Nowaz, Get Rich or Get Lucky

Victor Hugo
“His judgement demonstrates that one can be a genius and understand nothing of an art that is not one's own.”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame
