Jhumpa Lahiri
“We all must leave something behind when we leave this world. A child, or a book, or a painting, or a house, or a wall built, or a pair of shoes made. Or a garden planted.

Maya Angelou
“You are the sum total of everything you’ve ever seen, heard, eaten, smelled, been told, forgot- it’s all there. Everything influences each of us, and because of that I try to make sure that my experiences are positive.”
Mark Twain
“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.”
F Scott Fitzgerald
