“When did pursuing your ambitions cross the line from brave into foolhardy? How did you know when to stop? In earlier, more rigid, less encouraging (and ultimately, more helpful) decades, things would be much clearer: you would stop when you turned forty, or when you got married, or when you had kids, or after five years, or ten years, or fifteen. And then you would go get a real job, and acting and your dreams for a career in it would recede into the thick of the evening, a melting into history as quiet as a briquette of ice sliding into a warm bath.”
― Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

“What is the source of our first suffering? It lies in the fact that we hesitated to speak....it was born in the moments when we accumulated silent things within us.”
― Gaston Bachelard

“You are a pool of clear water where the light plays”

“It was impossible to explain to the healthy the logic of the sick, and he didn’t have the energy to try.”
― Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life
