“The power of words is that a life can be launched with as little as a single phrase, an uplifting word or an act of kindness. Think of the power we wield and the impact we can make if we become more intentional about encouraging our children. Our words are often the very things that help create future dreams. And sometimes those dreams are to be just like us.”

“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

“Mama, o kas gi bus, kai mūsų nebebus? Ar ir tada neišsiskirsim, ar meilė amžina...?
"Mama pakėlus priglaudė Mažylį, sužiuro jie į naktį tylią: mėnulis plaukė dangumi, už lango žvaigždės skaisčiai švietė. - Mažyli, į žvaigždes pasižiūrėki: kaip sklinda jų skaisti šviesa, nors kai kurių jau nebėra. Bet žiba jos dangaus skliaute ir jų šviesa kaip meilė amžina."
