“The stars drew light across the night sky in that little mountain village, and the silence and the cold made the darkness vanish away. It was - I don't know how to explain it - as if everything solid melted away into the ether, eliminating all individualtiy and absorbing us, rigid, into the immense darkness. Not a single cloud to lend perspective to the space blocked any portion of the starry sky.”
― Ernesto Che Guevara

“Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That’s part of what it means to be alive.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“I shed more tears than God could ever have required.”
― Arthur Rimbaud, Illuminations

“If in life we are surrounded by death, then in the health of our intellect we are surrounded by madness.”
― Ludwig Wittgenstein and Cyril Barrett
