    Stephen  King
    “He was a coward at heart, you see, although I never said the word out loud to him —not then and not ever. Doing that's about the most dangerous thing a person can do, I think, because a coward is more afraid of being discovered than he is of anything else, even dying.”
    Stephen King, Dolores Claiborne

    André Aciman
    “If there is pain, nurse it, and if there is a flame, don't snuff it out, don't be brutal with it. Withdrawal can be a terrible thing when it keeps us awake at night, and watching others forget us sooner than we'd want to be forgotten is no better. We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster than we should that we go bankrupt by the age of thirty and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to feel nothing so as not to feel anything - what a waste! (p. 225)”
    André Aciman

    “When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
    For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as
    the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.”
    Khalil Gibran, The Prophet

    Trevor Noah
    “The way my mother always explained it, the traditional man wants a woman to be subservient, but he never falls in love with subservient women. He's attracted to independent women. "He's like an exotic bird collector," she said. "He only wants a woman who is free because his dream is to put her in a cage.”
    Trevor Noah, Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood
