Sarah Mazza
“ I never thought I would choose a place like this. That I would even consider giving up my existence, to lie in a bed of lies. I never expected a lot of things to happen in my life. I try not to think about anything at all. Especially not how I become this; a man without hope. A man without dreams. ”
― Sarah Mazza, I Dream in Color

“ Once something becomes infrastructure, it stops being gentle. ”
― Michael Talbot, Threadborn Echo
