“I disregard the proportions, the measures, the tempo of the ordinary world. I refuse to live in the ordinary world as ordinary women. To enter ordinary relationships. I want ecstasy.

― Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934

“We accept the love we think we deserve.”
― Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower

“You have to keep breaking your heart until it opens.”
― Rumi

“I need the thing that happens when your brain shuts off and your heart turns on.”
― Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation
