Quote by Robertson Davies

"The world is full of people looking for spectacular experiences when often the most human experiences are the quiet, simple ones."

"I've always believed that a lot of the trouble in the world comes from idleness and boredom."

"The truth is that life is delicious, horrible, charming, frightful, sweet, bitter, and that is everything."

"Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment."

"The best part of living is knowing you survived."

"The world needs heroes."

"Life is too short to live poorly."

"I'd rather be an optimist and be wrong than a pessimist and be right"
