“Sometimes, I look outside, and I think that a lot of other people have seen this snow before. Just like I think that a lot of other people have read those books before. And listened to those songs.
I wonder how they feel tonight.”
― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

“It was the kind of voice that the ear follows up and down, as if each speech is an arrangement of notes that will never be played again.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“I had gone to no such place but to the smoke of cafes and nights when the room whirled and you needed to look at the wall to make it stop, nights in bed, drunk, when you knew that that was all there was, and the strange excitement of waking and not knowing who it was with you, and the world all unreal in the dark and so exciting that you must resume again unknowing and not caring in the night, sure that this was all and all and all and not caring.”
― Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms
