Quote by Lorenzo de Medici

"We are not makers of history. We are made by history."

"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work."

"The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."

"Without great solitude, no serious work is possible."

"The pen is mightier than the sword."

"Literature opens the mind to new worlds"

"The interesting thing about books is that they're made of words."

"Literature captures the essence of what it means to be human."
