Colourful Quiraing

Most of the time, the universe speaks to us very quietly … in pockets of silence, in coincidences, in nature, in forgotten memories, in the shape of clouds, in moments of solitude, in small tugs at our hearts.

As time goes on, you’ll understand. What lasts, lasts; what doesn’t, doesn’t. Time solves most things. And what time can’t solve, you have to solve yourself.

Haruki Murakami (via sunsetquotes)

In the end you can’t always choose what to keep. You can only choose how you let it go.

I know you’re tired but come, this is the way.

But what I wanted to say is this: After the period of melancholy is over you will be stronger than before, you will recover your health, & you will find the scenery round you so beautiful that you will want nothing but paint.

A dark curtain seemed to rise before him, and for less than a second he looked upon the mysterious universe of moral suffering. As a landscape is seen complete, and vast, and vivid, under a flash of lightning, so he could see disclosed in a moment all the immensity of pain that can be contained in one short moment of human thought.

– Joseph Conrad, from “The Return,” The Complete Short Fiction, Volume I (The Ecco Press, 1991)

“Your work becomes your personal life. You are not much good until it does […] It takes you up, and uses you, and spins you out; and that is your life.

Your ambition...  Where do you hope it will lead?  /  To Rome.  /  And?  /  Position... Power.  /  Which brings?  /  Wealth.  And good family.  Someday,  a place in the country.  /  Where you’ll find?  /  An end,  to travail.  A day without death.  Peace.  /  All that for peace?  Is there no other way?

I like checking days off a calendar - 151 days crossed and nothing truly horrible has happened. 152 and the world isn’t ruined. 153 and I haven’t destroyed anyone. 154 and no one really hates me. Sometimes I think I won’t ever feel safe until I can count my last days on one hand. Three more days to get through until I don’t have to worry about life anymore.

Gillian Flynn, from Sharp Objects (via adrasteiax)
