“I have been so many different people, played so many different roles in my life. I am not a person. I am a crowd in one body. I was people I hated and people I admired. I was exciting and boring and happy and infinitely sad.”
― Matt Haig, How to Stop Time

“I only need one good friend to see me through. Most people aren't like that. Most people are always looking out for more people to know.”
― Carol Rifka Brunt, Tell the Wolves I'm Home

“And someday,
when the parties
don’t dazzle you anymore,
and when the alcohol fails
to amuse your senses,
come to me.

We’ll lie on the grass,
stare at the stars,
and talk about Life.

Maybe I will become the Moment
you rediscover yourself again.”
― Meraaqi, Divine Trouble

“My story will be over soon. But it's not something to be sad about. As we count up the memories from one journey, we head off on another. Remembering those who went ahead. Remembering those who will follow after. And someday, we will meet all those people again, out beyond the horizon.”
― Hiro Arikawa, Nana Du Ký
