"I just want you to be happy. If that’s with me or with someone else or with nobody. I just want you to be happy. I just want you to be okay with life, with life as it is. And me too. It is so hard to accept that life is falling. Falling and landing and falling and landing. I agree it’s not ideal. I agree."
John Green

Moses, Michelangelo, 1513-1516.
Moses has often been portrayed with horns because of a misinterpretatio of the Bible where horns were believed to have been coming out of his head, wherein the real story recalls rays of light.
