"The date is not important. The age is not important. Time is not important. Life is very fleeting. Itâ€™s important to be gentle and optimistic. We look behind and think what weâ€™ve done in this life has been good. It was simple; it was modest. Everyone creates their own story and moves on. Thatâ€™s it. I donâ€™t feel particularly important. What we create is not important. Weâ€™re very insignificant."

-- Oscar Niemeyer

Of all the things God has made, the human heart is the one that sheds most light, and alas! most night.”
