Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost."

"We all have futures. We all have pasts. We all have stories. And we all, every single one of us, no matter who we are and no matter what’s been taken from us or what poison we’ve internalized or how hard we’ve had to work to expel it – we all get to dream.”

― N.K. Jemisin
