Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy. -Saadi

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. -George Bernard Shaw

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses. -Ann Landers

Now a soft kiss - Aye, by that kiss, I vow an endless bliss. -John Keats

She doesn't try to make things special this time.

It doesn't seem safe, doesn't seem worth it. If things go badly, as they did the last time she noticed hadn't bled when she expected to, she doesn't want to have to think back on a fond little dinner beginning it all. And if things go well--and Maker, please let them go well--then making a fuss over the fact that she's pregnant won't change anything.

The night after a healer confirms it for her, when she's lying sleepy and worried in Cullen's arms, the room warm (by Skyhold standards) and dark, she clears her throat quietly. "Cullen? Are you still awake?"

Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.

Any time women come together with a collective intention, it's a powerful thing. Whether it's sitting down making a quilt, in a kitchen preparing a meal, in a club reading the same book, or around the table playing cards, or planning a birthday party, when women come together with a collective intention, magic happens.

There must be something strangely sacred in salt. It is in our tears and in the sea.
