Because inspiration moves the world

"I have believed the best of every man. And find that to believe it is enough to make a bad man show him at his best, or even a good man swing his lantern higher."
— William Butler Yeats
“ Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.”
– Goethe
“The longer one studies life and literature, the more strongly one feels that behind everything that is wonderful stands the individual, and that it is not the moment that makes the man but the man who creates the age.”
– Oscar Wilde
