Dark’s Quotes

“I was thinking that a life is just the history of what we give our attention to,’ said Patrick. ‘The rest is packaging.”

“We are not cabin-dwellers, born to a life cramped and confined; we are meant to explore, to seek, to push the limits of our potential as human beings. The world of the senses is just a base camp: we are meant to be as much at home in consciousness as in the world of physical reality.”
― Ved Vyasa, The Bhagavad Gita

“experience of love is that you get excited thinking that someone can mend your broken heart, and then you get angry when you realize that they can’t. A certain economy creeps into the process and the jewelled daggers that used to pierce one’s heart are replaced by ever-blunter penknives.”
― Edward St. Aubyn, The Patrick Melrose Novels
