"Why, what did she tell you?"
"I don't know, I didn't listen.”

For truly, I am no longer a part of the world.”
― Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

“For a moment, nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen.”

“Fate is like a strange, unpopular restaurant filled with odd little waiters who bring you things you never asked for and don't always like.”
― Lemony Snicket
