    "Not just a cloud of moths," she says, "like...a swarm of them. Everywhere. All those wings and legs and..." She shudders and shakes her head.

    “Edward lies on the floor next to his bed, clutching at his face. Surrounding his head is a halo of blood, and jutting between his clawing fingers is a silver knife handle. My heart thumping in my ears, I recognize it as a butter knife from the dining hall. The blade is stuck in Edward’s eye.”

    “I'm in love with you," he said quietly.

    "Augustus," I said.

    "I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”

    Chūya Nakahara
    “Quietude

    Nothing visits me;
    my heart is quiet.

    It was Sunday’s roofed school paths,
    - everyone gone to the meadow.

    The floorboards have a cold shine,
    small birds are singing in the garden.

    The half-shut tap’s
    droplet blinks!

    The earth is rose-coloured, larks in the sky;
    the sky is a beautiful April.

    Nothing visits me;
    my heart is quiet.”
    ― Chūya Nakahara, The Poems of Nakahara Chuya

    “I'm strong and independent and I don't need anyone,' but the truth is: We do need people. People who'll laugh with us and cry with us and make the bad days bearable and the good days better; people who'll remember what we forget and `listen even when they don't completely understand; people who'll need us back. It had nothing to do with strength at all, and everything to do with being human.”
