“Since we're all going to die, it's obvious that when and how don't matter”
― Albert Camus, The Stranger

“Every person must choose how much truth he can stand.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, When Nietzsche Wept

“Whether I will live a long time or a short time, I’m alive now, at this moment. What I want is to know that there are other things to hope for besides length of life. What I want to know is that it isn’t necessary to turn away from thoughts of suffering or death but neither is it necessary to give these thoughts too much time and space. What I want is to be intimate with the knowledge that life is temporary. And then, in the light (or shadow) of that knowledge, to know how to live. How to live now.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, Creatures of a Day: And Other Tales of Psychotherapy

“I understood very well that people would forget me when I was dead. I wasn't even able to tell myself it was hard to think those things”
― Albert Camus, The Stranger
