    Steven Moffat
    “Demons run when a good man goes to war
    Night will fall and drown the sun
    When a good man goes to war

    Friendship dies and true love lies
    Night will fall and the dark will rise
    When a good man goes to war

    Demons run, but count the cost
    The battle's won, but the child is lost”
    Steven Moffat

    Brenda Lozano
    “Todo comienza cuando algo más ya comenzó. Mi nombre y mi historia no empiezan con mi nacimiento. Una historia no se acaba con la muerte ni con la despedida. Quedan los otros, los de antes, los que siguen, los de ahora.”
    Brenda Lozano

    “Me quedó una cicatriz. Me parece que contar es un modo de verbalizar una cicatriz. Como no todos los golpes ni todas las caídas dejan marcas, ahí están las palabras, listas para combinarse de distintos modos, en cualquier lugar, en cualquier momento, ante cualquier caída, por grave o leve que sea.”
    Brenda Lozano

    Brenda Lozano
    “En esta cafetería veo una fotografía enmarcada. No sé si esa persona está viva o muerta. La incertidumbre de las fotografías enmarcadas. Los marcos son como los nombres: las personas pueden estar vivas o muertas, pero en ese momento están en la fotografía, ese gerundio. Ese nombre que se distiende, ese presente continuo, ese marco, esas letras estáticas que son nuestro nombre. Desconcertantemente inmortal.”
    Brenda Lozano

    Charles Darwin
    “Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.”
    Charles Darwin, The Origin of Species

    Haruki Murakami

    Lemony Snicket
    “There are some who say that you should forgive everyone, even the people who
    have disappointed you immeasurably. There are others who say you should not forgive anyone, and should stomp off in a huff no matter how many times they apologize.
    Of these two philosophies, the second one is of course much more fun, but it can also grow exhausting to stomp off in a huff every time someone has disappointed you, as everyone disappoints everyone eventually, and one can’t stomp off in a huff every minute of the day.”
    Lemony Snicket, The Penultimate Peril

    Nawal El Saadawi
    “Everybody has to die, Firdaus. I will die, and you will die. The important thing is how to live util you die.'
    'How is it possible to live? Life is so hard.'
    'You must be harder than life, Firdaus. Life is very hard. The only people who really live are those who are harder than life itself.'
    'But you are not hard, Sharifa, so how do you manage to live?'
    'I am hard, terribly hard, Firdaus.'
    'No, you are gentle, and soft.'
    'My skin is soft, but my heart is cruel, and my bite deadly.”
    Nawal El-Saadawi

    “It's the worst part of seeing old friends: when your rose-colored memories become undone by reality.”

    “If my life wasn't funny it would just be true, and that is unacceptable.”
    Carrie Fisher

  • #14
    “One of the things that baffles me (and there are quite a few) is how there can be so much lingering stigma with regards to mental illness, specifically bipolar disorder. In my opinion, living with manic depression takes a tremendous amount of balls. Not unlike a tour of Afghanistan (though the bombs and bullets, in this case, come from the inside). At times, being bipolar can be an all-consuming challenge, requiring a lot of stamina and even more courage, so if you're living with this illness and functioning at all, it's something to be proud of, not ashamed of.
    They should issue medals along with the steady stream of medication.”
    Carrie Fisher, Wishful Drinking

    “Life is a cruel, horrible joke and I am the punch line.”

    “Is there anything more frightening than people?”
    Svetlana Alexievich, Voices from Chernobyl: The Oral History of a Nuclear Disaster

    Karl Marx: "Religion is the opiate of the masses."

    Carrie Fisher: "I did masses of opiates religiously.”

    shining
    out of its soul.”
