Christopher Paolini
When you teach them-teach them not to fear. Fear is good in small amounts, but when it is a constant, pounding companion, it cuts away at who you are and makes it hard to do what you know is right.
Christopher Paolini
The trick is to find happiness in the brief gaps between disasters.
