“Between the wish and the thing the world lies waiting.”
― Cormac McCarthy, All the Pretty Horses

“But there is much beauty here, because there is much beauty everywhere.”
― Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

“He walked out in the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world. The cold relentless circling of the intestate earth. Darkness implacable. The blind dogs of the sun in their running. The crushing black vacuum of the universe. And somewhere two hunted animals trembling like ground-foxes in their cover. Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it.”
― Cormac McCarthy, The Road
