Vanuel

“As long as I can make them laugh, it doesn’t matter how, I’ll be alright. If I succeed in that, the human beings probably won’t mind it too much if I remain outside their lives. The one thing I must avoid is becoming offensive in their eyes: I shall be nothing, the wind, the sky.”
― Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

“Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.”
― Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five

“We have only a little time to please the living. But all eternity to love the dead.”
― Sophocles, Antigone

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