“My Dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover.
-Falsely yours”
― Charles Bukowski

“Όταν σε λέω λεβεντιά
μην ξεχνάς πως είσαι μαλάκας
Όταν σε λέω γλύκα μου
μην ξεχνάς τι ξυλάγγουρο είσαι
Όταν μου λες πως μ' αγαπάς
μην ξεχνάς τα παζάρια που προηγήθηκαν
και μην θαρρείς πως είσαι τίποτα επειδή σε προσκυνώ..”
― Ντίνος Χριστιανόπουλος, Μικρά ποιήματα

“You will see great sorrow, and in that sorrow you will be happy. This is my last message to you: in sorrow seek happiness. Work, work unceasingly. Remember my words, for although I shall talk with you again, not only my days but my hours are numbered.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“For happiness, he told himself, isn’t being loved; that was just a slightly nauseous satisfaction of vanity. Happiness is loving and perhaps seizing a few short illusory moments of intimacy with the object of one’s love.”
― Thomas Mann
