QUESTS START WITH QUESTIONS

“Without the quest, there can be no epiphany.”

― Constantine E. Scaros, Reflections on a Simple Twist of Fate: Literature, Art and Parkinson's Disease.

“Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.”

― Anais Nin

“Because there was a hunger in me to see everything and do everything. I wanted to be everyone I saw. I wasn't enough for me. Can you understand that?”

― Sidney Sheldon, Bloodline

“As long as I am breathing, in my eyes, I am just beginning.”

― Criss Jami

“Everything you possess of skill, and wealth, and handicraft, wasn't it first merely a thought and a quest?”

― Rumi

“Say it, reader. Say the word 'quest' out loud. It is an extraordinary word, isn't it? So small and yet so full of wonder, so full of hope.”

― Kate DiCamillo, The Tale of Despereaux

“I was to discover that the quest for human understanding is a lifetime one that has no end in sight.”

― Margaret Bourke-White

“If those committed to the quest fail, they will be forgiven. When lost, they will find another way. The moral imperative of humanism is the endeavor alone, whether successful or not, provided the effort is honorable and failure memorable.”

― E. O. Wilson

“All people dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their mind, wake in the morning to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, For they dream their dreams with open eyes, And make them come true.”

― D.H. Lawrence

“Here’s to freedom, cheers to art. Here’s to having an excellent adventure and may the stopping never start.”

― Jason Mraz
