“The time has come
The walrus said
To talk of many things:
Of shoes- and ships-
And sealing wax-
Of cabbages and kings-
And why the sae is boiling hot-
And whether pigs have wings.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

“I stumbled out into the courtyard to try to flee my misery, but of course we can never flee the misery that is within us.”
― Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha

“I still love you. And sometimes, my friend, the love that I have, and can't give to you, crushes the breath from my chest. Sometimes, even now, my heart is drowning in a sorrow that has no stars without you, and no laughter, and no sleep.”
― Gregory David Roberts, Shantaram
