“For the ordinary individual: the thin line between sanity and insanity lies in thinking; such individual will deem you insane when he understands why you chose to think, and such individual will deem you even more insane when he understands what you chose to think about.”
― Kamal Korkees, Letters Of The Observer

“I did not forget you; I cannot forget you. I thrusted my arm into my body, pulled my heart out, and consequently, squeezed it dry of its blood, for in this dark night, I am using it as ink to write about you.”

“In an upper room two women sat looking out at the rain. The younger held the hand of the elder; but in this room also there was silence. They were silent, for they had seen their old life crumble like a swallow's nest in the rain, and they had not yet seen the possibility of any new life rise before them. So they sat and looked at the rain, and it seemed that there was nothing for them to do but go forward forever and ever the rain beating about them, their feet deep down in a drift of dead leaves.”
― S.R. Crockett, The Stickit Minister
