“외로워서 밥을 많이 먹다던 네에게

권태로워 잠을 많이 자다던 너에게

슬퍼서 많이 운다던 너에게

나는 쓴다

궁지에 몰린 마음을 밥처럼 씹어라

어차피 삶은 너가 소화해야 할 것이니까

To you, who eat a lot because you are lonely

To you, who sleeps a lot because you are weary

To you, who cries a lot because you are sad,

I write this,

Chew on your feelings as you would your rice

Anyways, life is something you need to digest”
― Chun Yang Hee

“The fear of becoming old is born of the recognition that one is not living now the life that one wishes. It is equivalent to a sense of abusing the present.”
― Susan Sontag, Reborn: Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963

“My emotional life: dialectic between craving for privacy and need to submerge myself in a passionate relationship to another.”
― Susan Sontag, Reborn: Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963

“Emotionally, I wanted to stay. Intellectually, I wanted to leave. As always, I seemed to enjoy punishing myself.”
― Susan Sontag, Reborn: Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963
