Jorge Luis Borges

Nothing is built on stone; all is built on sand, but we must build as if the sand were stone.

Democracy is an abuse of statistics.

My undertaking is not difficult, essentially. I should only have to be immortal to carry it out.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
