It's important that someone celebrate our existence... People are the only mirror we have to see ourselves in. The domain of all meaning. All virtue, all evil, are contained only in people.

I don't confuse greatness with perfection. To be great anyhow is…the higher achievement.: Lois McMaster Bujold, "Mirror Dance", 1994
