“There are only two kinds of people who are really fascinating-people who know absolutely everything, and people who know absolutely nothing.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

“Besides, sometimes it’s inevitable for the past to be forgotten, especially if the present is no less horrific;”
― Adania Shibli, Minor Detail

“And yet even that awful memory, which felt like it would crush my heart if only I would let it, the memory of that night, changed color day by day, so that when it snuck up on me, it took less and less time for my heart to settle down, until I finally felt the vortex in my heart growing smaller. It was bizarre to witness such vividly painful emotions, profound enough it felt like I could touch them, transform so completely.”
― Mieko Kawakami, All the Lovers in the Night

“Everything was beautiful. Not that there was anyone to share it with, anyone to tell. Just the beauty.”
― Mieko Kawakami, Heaven
