“It's almost been worth this depression to find out how little our big men know.”

“A big city is a big ocean; the one who doesn’t know how to swim finds himself at its bottom!”

“You never know who is going to adore the person you're hidingbut it's worth finding out”

“It's the little things that find us out, the little things we refuse to do in order to avoid doing the big things that can save us.”

“[M]en, though they know full well how much women are worth and how great the benefits we bring them, nonetheless seek to destroy us out of envy for our merits. It's just like the crow, when it produces white nestlings: it is so stricken by envy, knowing how black it is itself, that it kills its own offspring out of pique.”

“I think us here to wonder, myself. To wonder. To ask. And that in wondering bout the big things and asking bout the big things, you learn about the little ones, almost by accident. But you never know nothing more about the big things than you start out with. The more I wonder, the more I love.”
