Death is for the dead.

“As it happened, I was no longer interested in literature as a form of snobbery or even self-definition. I had no desire to prove that one book was better than another; in fact, if I read something I admired, I found myself increasingly disinclined to mention it at all. What I knew personally to be true had come to seem unrelated to the process of persuading others. I did not, any longer, want to persuade anyone of anything.”
― Rachel Cusk, Outline

“Truth resists simplicity.”
― John Green

“one more creature
dizzy with love”
― Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell
