Unique in the Universe

 ''Hey, do you mind if I tell you a story? One you might not have heard?

 All the elements in your body were forged, many millions of years ago, in the heart of a far away star that exploded and died. That explosion scattered those elements across the desolations of deep space. After so, so many millions of years, these elements came together to form new stars and new planets. And on and on it went-- the elements came together and burst apart, forming shoes and ships and sealing-wax and cabbages and kings. Until eventually-- they came together to make you.

 You are unique in the universe. There is only one you and there will never be another.''

Doctor Who

Books make me feel I am not alone

“But you love books, then,” Aunt Queen was saying. I had to listen.

“Oh, yes,” Lestat said. “Sometimes they are the only thing that keeps me alive.”

“What a strange thing to say at your age,” she laughed.

“No, but one can feel desperate at any age, don’t you think? The young are eternally desperate,” he said frankly. “And books, they offer one hope — that a whole universe might open up from between the covers, and falling into that new universe, one is saved.”
