“The moment I saw a dream of forever,
Your betrayal woke me up.
The moment I felt a touch of muse,
Your lies choke me up.
The moment I heard a tune of serenity,
Your abandonment tore me up.”
― Hareem Ch, Hankering for Tranquility

“People in pain may look for comfort and explanations. People disappointed in pleasure look for purpose.”
― Ravi Zacharias, The Logic of God: 52 Christian Essentials for the Heart and Mind

“The worst part is not the sleeplessness. The worst part is the general darkness the dream leaves over him, a gray film that clouds the day. Even his happy moments feel encased, like holes jabbed in a hard sheet of ice.”
― Mitch Albom, The Five People You Meet in Heaven

“I am coming to see that the sensation of the worst nightmares, a sensation that can be felt asleep or awake, is identical to those worst dreams’ form itself: the sudden intra-dream realization that the nightmares’ very essence and center has been with you all along, even awake: it’s just been… overlooked; and then that horrific interval between realizing what you’ve overlooked and turning your head to look back at what’s been right there all along, the whole time.”
― David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest
