"Does a leaf, when it falls from the tree in winter, feel defeated by the cold? The tree says to the leaf: "Thatâ€™s the cycle of life. You may think youâ€™re going to die, but you live on in me. Itâ€™s thanks to you that Iâ€™m alive, because I can breathe. Itâ€™s also thanks to you that I have felt loved, because I was able to give shade to the weary traveller. Your sap is in my sap; we are one thing."

-- Paulo Coelho
