Before i die Quote by Madalyn Murray O'Hair
“Long ago, when I was a very young girl, I said that I wanted to go everywhere, see everything, taste everything. hear everything, touch everything, try everything before I died. There isn't anything you can name that a woman can do that I haven't done. I don't intend to stand by and be a spectator. I want to be right in there in the midst of it, right up to my nose - totally involved in the community, in the world, in the stream of history, in the human image.”

![“[...] "I recall what you said to me once," Will went on. "That words have the power to change us. Your words have changed me, Tess; they have made me a better man than I would have been otherwise. Life is a book, and there are a thousand pages I have not read. I would read them together with you…” quote by Cassandra Clare](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/8af/cassandra-clare-9_before-i-die_i-recall-what-you-said-to-me-once-will-w_184924.jpg)
