Madonna
“Do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? The longing for home? For indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back. All my life the godof the Mountain has been wooing me. Oh, look up once at least before the endand wish me joy. I am going to my lover. Do you not see now?”
C.S. Lewis
“It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"”
