“It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unhappy, it was confusion and misunderstanding; above all, it was the failure to grasp the simple truth that other people are as real as you.

― Ian McEwan, Atonement

“Rage is not attractive in a girl.”
― Paula Vogel, How I Learned to Drive

“Why does even the best person hold back something from another? Why not say directly what we feel if we know that what we entrust won't be scattered to the winds?”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, White Nights

“because you feel like it’s spirits whispering—spirits that’s been dead ever so many years—and you always think they’re talking about you”
― Mark Twain
