Stories inspire us to reach high, love deep, change the world and be more than we ever thought we could. Every book allows us to dream a new dream.”

“Aku nggak membencimu. Aku hanya benci karena ternyata begitu sulit melupakanmu.”

“Enough with the sadness! This dream is not for cry-babies...” he said, his face beaming with a wide smile.”
