“Life is a veil, its paths are dark and roughOnly because we do not know enoughWhen Science has discovered something moreWe shall be happier than we were before.”

“With a tear for the dark past, turn we then to the dazzling future, and, veiling our eyes, press forward. The long and weary winter of the race is ended. Its summer has begun. Humanity has burst the chrysalis. The heavens are before it.”

“[M]ost people go through life a wee bit disappointed in themselves. I think we all keep a memory of a moment when we missed someone or something, when we could have gone down another path, a happier or better or just a different path. Just because they're in the past doesn't mean you can't treasure the possibilities ... maybe we put down a marker for another time. And now's the time. Now we can do whatever we want to do.”

“We want to discover who we are without the burden of sight. It's easy to believe we are the same inside because we look so similar. Sanna says only in the dark can we know the truth, but I'm not so sure. Darkness conceals.”

“And we were kissing like drowning people breathe-- like suddenly we'd discovered something that has never been so sweet before that moment.”

“Much that is terrible we do not know. Much that is beautiful we shall still discover. Let's sail till we come to the edge.”
