“We shall live for no reason. Then die and be done with it. What a recognition! What shall save us? Only the knowledge that we have lived without illusion, not excluding the illusion that something will save us.” - William H. Gass, A Temple of Texts

It all begins and ends in your mind. What you give power to has power over you.

People

If you think about it, your life is a show and people are judges.

[books-n-quotes]

I hate solitude, but I am afraid of intimacy. The substance of my life is a private conversation with myself which to turn into a dialogue would be equivalent to self-destruction.

Iris Murdoch, Under the Net (via books-n-quotes)

Once you have fallen off the edge like all of us have, you will never stop falling, and as you fall, you will hold on to the other falling people. The sooner you understand that, the better.

I feel so endlessly lonely.

Butterfly Effect

What if we never meet people we were meant to meet?

What if we never see again people who we loved in previous lives?

What if the universe has screwed up and I will never find you because I left the bookstore too early or I decided not to go out in the rain one day?

What if you are miles and miles away and don’t even know to come looking for me?

Will we settle for being strangers?

I don’t want to, my love.

Some people make your day, without even trying.

You know the greatest lesson of history? It’s that history is whatever the victors say it is. That’s the lesson. Whoever wins, that’s who decides the history

For most of us mortals, everything that we can ever achieve lies in those 5 seconds of time Netflix gives us.

The moment passed in a heartbeat. But it did not matter. What mattered was that it existed.
