    Maybe the star doesn't even exist any more. Yet sometimes that light seems more real to me than anything.”
    ― Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
    ― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

    John Green
    “Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book. And then there are books like An Imperial Affliction, which you can't tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like betrayal”
    ― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
