“I will set the mirror up, to face the blackened sky, you will see your beauty every moment that you rise.”

“You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul.”

“It is the obvious which is so difficult to see most of the time. People say 'It's as plain as the nose on your face.' But how much of the nose on your face can you see, unless someone holds a mirror up to you?”

“Look in the face of your beloved,For in that mirror, you will see yourself.”

“Everything changes. Everything is temporary, except for the sky. When you find yourself caught up in the horrors or heroes of a lifetime, look up. Don't look down. That which is beneath our feet is liquid, but the sky, the sky is solid, constant, ever ready and ever hopeful that the sun will rise in the morning and the moon will rise at night. They don't really set, you know. They're always rising, just rising for someone else.”

“But sometimes even the sky is dangerous. I look up and see your face in the stars.”
