The lessons I had learned, the feelings of groundedness and belonging that have been woven into my character there, would be my companions on the journey. Sidney Poitier
In one word, Queequeg, said I, rather digressively; hell is an idea first born on an undigested apple-dumpling; and since then perpetuated through the hereditary dyspepsias nurtured by Ramadans. Herman Melville
If human foolishness had been as carefully nurtured and cultivated as intelligence has been for centuries, perhaps it would have turned into something extremely precious. Yevgeny Zamyatin
We see God and the devil making fools of each other, and we nurture in ourselves the absolutely unshakable conviction that both of them are drunk. Frank Wedekind
