You must remember, family is often born of blood, but it doesn't depend on blood. Nor is it exclusive of friendship. Family members can be your best friends, you know. And best friends, whether or not they are related to you, can be your family.
J. R. R. Tolkien
The world is indeed full of peril and in it there are many dark places, but still there is much that is fair. And though in all lands, love is now mingled with grief, it still grows, perhaps, the greater.
Doctor Who - "The Rings of Akhaten"
All the elements in your body were forged many many millions of years ago in the heart of a faraway star that exploded and died. That explosion scattered those elements across the desolations of deep space. After many millions of years, these elements came together to form new stars and new planets. The elements came together and burst apart, forming shoes and ships and sealing wax and cabbages and kings, until, eventually, they came together to make you. You are unique in the universe.
