Nim Chimpsky

“I have absolutely no pleasure in the stimulants in which I sometimes so madly indulge. It has not been in the pursuit of pleasure that I have periled life and reputation and reason. It has been the desperate attempt to escape from torturing memories, from a sense of insupportable loneliness and a dread of some strange impending doom.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“Everything tender and melancholy - as life is sometimes, just for one moment.”
― Jean Rhys, Good Morning, Midnight

“Melancholy were the sounds on a winter's night.”
― Virginia Woolf, Jacob's Room
