“It's the damage that we do and never know. It's the words that we don't say that scare me so.”
― Elvis Costello

“I know exactly how that is. To love somebody who doesn’t deserve it. Because they are all you have. Because any attention is better than no attention. For exactly the same reason, it is sometimes satisfying to cut yourself and bleed. On those gray days where eight in the morning looks no different from noon and nothing has happened and nothing is going to happen and you are washing a glass in the sink and it breaks-accidentally-and punctures your skin. And then there is this shocking red, the brightest thing in the day, so vibrant it buzzes, this blood of yours. That is okay sometimes because at least you know you’re alive.”
― Augusten Burroughs, Running with Scissors

“There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be...”
― John Lennon

“A half-read book is a half-finished love affair.”
― David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas
