Feverish Quotes

“No reason for a feverish rush
For we will all arrive in the same place

There will be no better or worse,
No big and small, no rewards, no punishment,
No guilt, no judges, no hierarchies;
Only silent equality.”
― Dejan Stojanovic

its body leaving paths on the walls
like red snails that drifted down in lumps.

while she had slept
falling around her
like slow rain.”
― Michael Ondaatje, The Man with Seven Toes

― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“So many days had passed since he had left her but the disorder that she had brought into his world had not left him. He thought of her many times during the day.

― Mukta Singh-Zocchi, The Thugs & a Courtesan
