“But how could you live and have no story to tell?”
― Fyodor Dostoevsky, White Nights

“Speaking for myself, I am only true when I'm alone. As a child, I always feared that I was about to fall off the face of the earth at any minute. Why do the clouds keep afloat when everything else drops to the ground? The explanation is simple: the gravity is less than the force of air that sustains the clouds. Clever, don't you think? Yes, but sooner or later they fall in the form of rain. That is my revenge.”
― Clarice Lispector, The Hour of the Star

“How difficult it is to be simple.”
― Irving Stone, Lust for Life
