“Thinking of her was always like this: a rush of fondness, and then a bolt of fear. Love poems never seemed to include this thread of terror. Was he uniquely ill-disposed to this sentiment, too uneasy, too anxious for the act of loving without reserve? Or was the object of his affection uniquely vulnerable?”
― Ava Reid, A Theory of Dreaming

“How do we survive when reality becomes too much to bear?”
― Ava Reid, A Theory of Dreaming

“… If I could make a wish I want to be just a little happier
If I become too happy I will miss sadness”
― Bora Chung, Cursed Bunny

“I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of any thing than of a book! -- When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
