Quotes with Semester

• "I'm not telling you to make the world better, because I don't think that progress is necessarily part of the package. I'm just telling you to live in it. Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it. To look at it. To try to get the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it. To seize the moment. And if you ask me why you should bother to do that, I could tell you that the grave's a fine and private place, but none I think do there embrace. Nor do they sing there, or write, or argue, or see the tidal bore on the Amazon, or touch their children. And that's what there is to do and get it while you can and good luck at it." - Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem
• "I'm not sure I'll ever know the meaning of life or what comes for us after death, but I know it's more than the hysteria people make it out to be. It's about freeing your soul when you've been trapped, letting go of all the anger and hate that consumes you, and moving forward with all that love in your heart. It's about finding peace in yourself so that you can live in peace with others. It's about sharing your gifts with the world, and leaving it better than you found it. It's about making a difference, no matter how small, and it's about loving yourself, others, and life with a love that knows no bounds." - Elizabeth Lesser, Broken Open: How Difficult Times Can Help Us Grow
• "I am a teacher. It's how I define myself. A good teacher isn't someone who gives the answers out to their kids but is understanding of needs and challenges and gives tools to help other people succeed. That's the way I see myself, so whatever it is that I will do eventually after politics, it'll have to do a lot with teaching." - Justin Trudeau, Canadian Prime Minister
