“You know how they categorize Shakespeare’s plays, right? If it ends with a wedding, it’s a comedy. And if it ends with a funeral, it’s a tragedy. So we’re all living tragedies, because we all end the same way, and it isn’t with a goddamned wedding.”

Oscar Wilde once said that to live is the rarest thing in the world, because most people just exist, and that’s all.
