It was like when you make a move in chess and just as you take your finger off the piece, you see the mistake you've made, and there's this panic because you don't know yet the scale of disaster you've left yourself open to.

— Kazuo Ishiguro, Never Let Me Go

“How easy it was to lie to strangers, to create with strangers the versions of our lives that we have imagined.”

— Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Americanah

“It’s comforting, yet paralyzing to know that we are completely and utterly responsible for our own lives. Where we are headed in life and what we accomplish is all on us - nobody else. There is endless possibility in this knowledge. However, some people are so afraid of failing, they never try. Instead of being riddled with fear, we should feel free to pursue our goals, because the only person stopping us from trying is ourselves.”

“We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.” ― Chuck Palahniuk, Diary

It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.

“I must admit that, perhaps, I fled too much; from my thoughts, my emotions, but more importantly from myself, because tumbling down another rabbit hole seemed far more alluring than searching for its exit. But now that there’s no new misery to drown in and no heartache for me to chase, where am I headed, with no suffering left to escape into, with no one to blame but myself? Maybe now is the time to move on.”

“Don’t allow for the sadness of yesterday to hold you back from the happiness of tomorrow. You have so much that still awaits; not behind, but ahead of you. So raise up your head, and prepare for the radiance of a beautiful tomorrow.”

“It’s like when someone says, ‘How are you?’ Do you say, 'Well, my head hurts and I’m lonely and depressed and I’m worried about everything and the world is collapsing and full of evil’? Or do you say, 'I’m fine’?”

“There is really only one question and it’s not “How are you doing?”. It’s “Who do you trust enough to say: “I’m not doing so good.”

“I feel like I forget sometimes. I haven’t been front and center in my own life in years. I try to prioritize things. I try to put myself first – but I’m never the sun. I’m never the most radiant in my own eyes. There is always something that outshines me. Perhaps someone, or something, brighter than myself.”
