"Each person shines with his or her own light. No two flames are alike. There are big flames and little flames, flames of every color. Some peopleâ€™s flames are so still they donâ€™t even flicker in the wind, while others have wild flames that fill the air with sparks. Some foolish flames neither burn nor shed light, but others blaze with life so fiercely that you canâ€™t look at them without blinking, and if you approach you shine in the fire."

-- Eduardo Galeano
