“I've never been in love, never in my life.
Oh, I've dreamed of love, dreamed endlessly, day and night,
but my soul is like a fine piano that's locked,
and the key is lost.”
― Chekhov's Three Sisters & Woolf's Orlando

“I think a person has to believe in something,
or search out some kind of faith;
otherwise life is empty, nothing.

why children are born, why there are stars in the sky...
Either you know why you live,
or it's all small, unnecessary bits.”
― Chekhov's Three Sisters & Woolf's Orlando

“When you snatch happiness in little bits, fits and starts, and lose it, like me, you become coarse, little by little, you become hateful.”

“I try to tighten my heart into a knot, a snarl, I try to learn to live dead, just numb, but then I see someone I want, and it's like a nail, like a hot spike right through my chest, and I know I'm losing.”
