“People were always sorry. Sorry they had done what they had done, sorry they were doing what they were doing, sorry they were going to do what they were going to do; but they still did whatever it is. The sorrow never stopped them; it just made them feel better. And so the sorrow never stopped.”
― Iain M. Banks, Against a Dark Background

“Maybe there’s a universe out there — happening now — where we end up together.
Maybe there’s a universe where I’m the right person for you. Where I adore every nice thing you did for me without starting to resent you. A universe where you actually end up with someone who appreciates you. Where no one becomes a doormat. Where both of us can shed our baggage and curiosity and issues.

If you think of it all this way, then it’s like neither of us did anything wrong.

You just found me in the wrong universe. That’s all.

Because you could have loved me forever. And maybe in another universe, I let you.”
― Gaby Dunn
