Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over.

Gloria Naylor
Scholars, priests, kings, and laymen throughout the centuries have pondered on and debated the afterlife. Humankind always needed to look outward, to aspire to something greater than themselves. It is because they do not know the future that they find the hope that gives them motivation to change.
Colleen Houck, Tiger’s Destiny
"I don’t want your love unless you know I am repulsive, and love me even as you know it."
Georges Bataille - My Mother/Madame Edwarda/The Dead Man (via sparrowsinthegutters)
We each have a purpose, a destiny, and to realize it, we must reach beyond what we think we are capable of.
Colleen Houck, Tiger's Destiny
You must not reduce yourself to a puddle just because the person you like is afraid to swim and you are a fierce sea to them; because there will be someone who was born with love of the waves within their blood, and they will look at you with fear and respect.
T.B. LaBerge // Things I’m Still Learning at 25
When you are used to the kind of life—of never getting anything you want—you stop knowing what it is you want.
Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves
I wish I had the courage not to fight and doubt everything. I wish, just once, I could say: ‘This. This is good enough.’
Chuck Palahniuk, Choke
The Buddhists say if you meet somebody and your heart pounds, your hands shake, your knees go weak, that’s not the one. When you meet your ‘soul mate’ you’ll feel calm. No anxiety, no agitation.
Monica Drake, Clown Girl
I don’t care if it’s a sad good-bye or a bad good-bye, but when I leave a place I like to know I’m leaving it.
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
The soul is unmanifest; it is unthinkable; and it is spoken of as immutable. Therefore, knowing this as such, you should not grieve.
-From the Bhagavad Gita
I will be wild. I will be brutal. I will encircle you and conquer you. I will be more powerful than your boats and your swords and your blood lust. I will be inevitable.
Iphigenia, from A Memory of Wind by Rachel Swirsky.
Everyone’s pretty much the same— we’re all just fucked up individuals.
A friend of a friend (via kanikanikanika)
So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
“If you are not the hero of your own story, then you’re missing the whole point of your humanity.”
― Steve Maraboli
Every word has consequences. Every silence, too.
Jean-Paul Sartre, from The Sellected Essays
