“Love blurs your vision; but after it recedes, you can see more clearly than ever. It's like the tide going out, revealing whatever's been thrown away and sunk: broken bottles, old gloves, rusting pop cans, nibbled fishbodies, bones.

― Margaret Atwood, Cat’s Eye

“The world is, of course, nothing but our conception of it.”
― Anton Chekhov
