“Emotions and I don't have the best relationship. It's a distant, bitter affair-a divorce. Emotions are disgusted by me. They're a gust of wind on the other side of that ledge, and even if they toy with my hair or stroke my skin, I ignore them. Emotions are with the ghosts I buried, husks of what they were, hollow hauntings.”

“Vulnerability craves isolation. Desperation weeps in it.”

“Death is not a being. It is a state of being. We humanize it, demonize it, give it a soul because it is easier to condemn something with a face. Disease is in the same boat, only it's a lot easier to convict it. Disease has reason. Virus, bacteria, defected cells. Those already have a face.
Time doesn't need a face at all. Time steals openly. Such carelessness on its part is enough to be found guilty.
Guilty of what, though? Time, Disease, and Death don't hate us. The world and its many shadows are not capable of hate. They simply don't care about us.
They don't need us. They never made, and as such, never broke any promises.”

“Write me a letter telling me how to live for the rest of my life without you.”
