Нона

“That life - whatever else it is - is short. That fate is cruel but maybe not random. That Nature (meaning Death) always wins but that doesn’t mean we have to bow and grovel to it. That maybe even if we’re not always so glad to be here, it’s our task to immerse ourselves anyway: wade straight through it, right through the cesspool, while keeping eyes and hearts open. And in the midst of our dying, as we rise from the organic and sink back ignominiously into the organic, it is a glory and a privilege to love what Death doesn’t touch.”
― Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

“Forgive me, for all the things I did but mostly for the ones that I did not.”

“When you feel homesick,’ he said, ‘just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go.”

“A casa vivíem sense paraules i les coses que jo duia per dintre em feien por perquè no sabia si eren meves...”
