Late to the party…I crashed out hard this afternoon and am still a bit disoriented. This was an easy list though. Here are thirteen of my favorite quotes*.

- “Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and now we cannot live within” – James Baldwin
- “Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality” – Jules De Gallier
