“Life on Earth is only borrowed time. We need to appreciate the time that’s given to us, because ultimately we have to give it back.”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“Shyness is a lasso that binds the wings each of us has. Only if you untie it can you fly. Don”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“I noticed a copy of X-Men, a Marvel comic he loved, in his backpack, which was lying open on his crossed legs. Sometimes it seemed a part of those characters lived inside him. Peter wasn’t your classic knight in shining armor; he was a complex hero full of doubts and conflicting emotions who suffered from unrequited love.”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“La timidez es un lazo que envuelve nuestras alas con fuerza. Sólo volarás lejos si lo deshaces. No renuncies a las cosas sólo porque podrías arrepentirte de algo. A veces basta con alargar la mano para coger lo que tienes delante. Cualquier persona podría dar un paso más largo que el tuyo y entonces ya no podrías volver atrás. Despliega tus alas, pajarillo, y vuela.”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“Con un libro en el regazo, me imaginaba alejándome del mundo, liberando la mente más allá de los límites del cuerpo, mientras los ojos, que recorrían las páginas línea a línea, como veleros alados, me transportaban a lugares lejanos”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“You need to learn to seize the day. Shyness is a lasso that binds the wings each of us has. Only if you untie it can you fly. Don’t give up on something if you might regret it later. Sometimes all you need to do is reach out and take what’s in front of you. Someone else might beat you to it and you’ll miss your chance. Spread your wings, Squirrelicue, and go talk to him.”

“The Angel of Death was there for me and soon he would come to take me, because one way or the other I had to die.”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“Death, if it came unexpectedly, might be cruel but it wasn't frightening, because you didn't have the chance to realize what was about to happen. Knowing your own fate in advance, on the other hand, was a terrifying form of torture, maybe even worse than death itself. A prelude to madness.
Fearing the shadow of death with each breath was an agonizing countdown that left you exhausted and sapped your will to fight, until its echoing whisper faded into an icy silence that deprived you of everything. It was like a deadly poison that took effect silently, draining your energy, battering your mind's defenses until you ultimately wanted to give in to its comfort, letting it shroud you in its dark mantle so the fear itself wouldn't kill you...slowly”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“Shyness”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
“It was so strange how fast you could go from walking on a cloud to sinking into the deepest despair. But life doesn’t always ask you what you think is fair. Moods change, like the seasons; the only difference is how quickly everything transforms.”
Elisa S. Amore, Touched
