“
Loneliness is the human condition. Cultivate it. The way it tunnels into you allows your soul room to grow. Never expect to outgrow loneliness. Never hope to find people who will understand you, someone to fill that space. An intelligent, sensitive person is the exception, the very great exception. If you expect to find people who will understand you, you will grow murderous with disappointment. The best you'll ever do is to understand yourself, know what it is that you want, and not let the cattle stand in your way.”
― Janet Fitch, White Oleander

“Desire is no light thing.”
― Anne Carson, Autobiography of Red: A Novel in Verse

“In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.”
― Robert Frost

“I'm sick of not having the courage to be an absolute nobody.”
― J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey
