John Lennon

James Matthew Barrie
“How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.”
Albert Einstein
“When I go to see a movie, if I can't engage emotionally then it doesn't affect me and I can't get anything out of it. When you look at a movie that doesn't reflect your reality [time after time], eventually you're going to get tired and pick up a book.”
Toni Collette
“I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection”
Thomas Paine
“Women need real moments of solitude and self-reflection to balance out how much of ourselves we give away.”
