"And following that train of thought led him back to Earth, back to the quiet hours in the center of the clear water ringed by a bowl of tree-covered hills. That is the Earth, he thought…a forest with a shining lake, a house hidden at the crest of a hill, high in the trees a grassy slope leading upward from the water, fish leaping and birds strafing to take the bugs that lived at the border between water and sky. Earth was the constant noise of crickets and wind and sky. Earth was the constant voice of one girl, who spoke to him our of his far-off childhood."

Ender’s Game, by Orson Scott Card 

This is really out of context, and do not expect this book to be about nature and “childhood” but I thought this was just beautiful writing that needed a bit more publicity than…ya know, just a novel that was lated adapted into a movie and is loved by all.

Ryan: Yeah, they’re disappointed when I’m not Ryan Reynolds. “Oh, can I get my picture with you?” and I’m like “Sure.” and then they go “I thought you were more muscle-y.” “Hm, no.” “Have you gotten like, more unattractive for a role?” “No. Just the role of my life.”

"The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours – it is an amazing journey – and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins."
