“I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.”

“That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet.”
― Emily Dickinson

“It is by no means an irrational fancy that, in a future existence, we shall look upon what we think our present existence, as a dream.”
― Edgar Allan Poe

“Of course, in a novel, people’s hearts break, and they die, and that is the end of it; and in a story this is very convenient. But in real life we do not die when all that makes life bright dies to us.

― Harriet Beecher Stowe, Uncle Tom’s Cabin
