“Der Mensch ist zu einer beschränkten Lage geboren; einfache, nahe, bestimmte Zwecke vermag er einzusehen {...}; sobald er aber ins Weite kommt, weiß er weder, was er will, noch was er soll.”

“I'd never thought about what my favorite color was before. It never seemed important.
Not until I looked into a pair of ocean blue eyes and realized that perhaps drowning was a beautiful thing.
Not until I looked into a pair of fiery blue eyes and realized that perhaps burning was a painless thing.
Not until I looked into a pair of sky blue eyes and realized that perhaps falling was a peaceful thing.
I'd never thought about what my favorite color was before because I hadn't seen one that was worthy of the title. Until now, that is.
"Blue," I say, my voice low.”
