noc.turne: n. a pensive lyrical piece. a painting of a night scene. the name is now used for a certain graceful and expressive form of instrumental composition.
noc.tur-nal: adj. of, relating to, or occurring in the night.

A couple of quotes until I find something better to fill this in with:
"One thing I've learned. You can know anything. It's all there. You just have to find it." -- John Constantine, in SANDMAN #3: "Dream a Little Dream of Me"
"I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind." --- George Bernard Shaw
"Certain flaws are necessary for the whole. It would seem strange if old friends lacked certain quirks." -- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside of them was superior to circumstance." -- Bruce Barton
"Isolation is aloneness that feels forced upon you, like a punishment. Solitude is aloneness you choose and embrace. I think great things can come out of solitude, out of going to a place where all is quiet except the beating of your heart." -- Jeanne Marie Laskas, Washington Post Magazine
"I like libraries. It makes me feel comfortable and secure to have walls of words, beautiful and wise, all around me. I always feel better when I can see that there is something to hold back the shadows." -- Roger Zelazny
There's stories and there's stories... the ones with any worth change your life forever, perhaps in a small way, but once you've heard them, they are forever a part of you. You nurture them and pass them on and the giving only makes you feel better. The stories are just stories, they make one laugh or cry - but if they have any worth, they carry within them a deeper resonance that remains long after the final page is turned...or the storyteller has come to the end of her tale." -- Charles de Lint, The Conjure Man, Dreams Unfooted
"That there are things in this world not carved out of gray stone. That there's a small place inside of us they can never lock away, and that place is called hope." -- Andy, The Shawshank Redemption
