J.D. Salinger
“That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. Girls. Jesus Christ. They can drive you crazy. They really can.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Julie Delpy
“I believe if there's any kind of God it wouldn't be in any of us, not you or me but just this little space in between. If there's any kind of magic in this world it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something. I know, it's almost impossible to succeed but who cares really? The answer must be in the attempt.”
Julie Delpy, Before Sunrise & Before Sunset: Two Screenplays

F. Scott Fitzgerald
“There are all kinds of love in this world but never the same love twice.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald

Ellen Wittlinger
“I trust the red sun setting,

the leafless November trees.

On Monday morning I look foward

fearlessly to Friday’s eve.

But humans are not as reliable

as nature, as trees.

I wonder if you’ll come back;

I trust only that you leave.”
Ellen Wittlinger, Hard Love

Albert Camus
“Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow
Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead
Walk beside me… just be my friend”
Albert Camus
