“Mas afinal, o que se leva da vida, senão os remorsos? Remorsos do que poderia ter sido e não foi, e do que se perdeu depois de ter sido. Remorsos do que devia ter sido dito e feito, e não o foi a tempo, ou do que foi demasiadamente dito e feito. Remorsos destes eternos desencontros, desta sensação de que nada existe no seu tempo certo, de chegar sempre tarde ou partir cedo demais.”
― Miguel Sousa Tavares, Não Te Deixarei Morrer, David Crockett

“The sad truth is that certain types of things can't go backward. Once they start going forward, no matter what you do, they can't go back the way they were. If even one little thing goes awry, then that's how it will stay forever.”
― Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

“Lots of different ways to live and lots of different ways to die. But in the end that doesn't make a bit of difference. All that remains is a desert.”
― Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

“There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and an infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
