“What separates us from the animals, what separates us from the chaos, is the ability to mourn people we have never met.” ~ David Levithan
“During bad circumstances, which is the human inheritance, you must decide not to be reduced. You have your humanity, and you must not allow anything to reduce that. We are obliged to know we are global citizens. Disasters remind us we are world citizens, whether we like it or not.” ~ Maya Angelou
“To grasp the full significance of life is the actor’s duty, to interpret it is his problem and to express it is his dedication.” ~ Marlon Brando
