" And where most people see mirrors, you, my friend, see windows. By which I mean there is always something beyond the glass. You have seen it and will always see it now, though others may not. I would have spared you that vision at such a young age. But it's been given you, and it will be up to you to decide whether it's a blessing or a curse. "

― Trenton Lee Stewart , The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey (The Mysterious Benedict Society, #2)
