“Humans are by nature romantic creatures. By that I don't mean full of love: I mean that they like the idea of things more than the reality of them.”
Ronan Hession, Panenka

“But isn’t that what allowing yourself be loved is all about – letting something greater than fear into your life?”
Ronan Hession, Panenka

James Baldwin
“For he was one of those poets who escaped the terrors of writing by writing all the time.”
James Baldwin, Another Country

Gabrielle Zevin
“What is a game?" Marx said. "It's tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. It's the possibility of infinite rebirth, infinite redemption. The idea that if you keep playing, you could win. No loss is permanent, because nothing is permanent, ever.”
Gabrielle Zevin, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

James Baldwin
“We don’t know enough about ourselves. I think it’s better to know that you don’t know, that way you can grow with the mystery as the mystery grows in you. But, these days, of course, everybody knows everything, that’s why so many people are so lost.”
James Baldwin, If Beale Street Could Talk
