“Dear Milena,
I wish the world were ending tomorrow. Then I could take the next train, arrive at your doorstep in Vienna, and say: “Come with me, Milena. We are going to love each other without scruples or fear or restraint. Because the world is ending tomorrow.” Perhaps we don’t love unreasonably because we think we have time, or have to reckon with time. But what if we don't have time? Or what if time, as we know it, is irrelevant? Ah, if only the world were ending tomorrow. We could help each other very much.”
― Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

“Tomorrow always came soon enough, but I nodded. Because in the same breath, tomorrow wasn’t today’s problem. ”
― Jennifer L. Armentrout, A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire

“I suppose we all see colors outside our usual spectrum in certain people. And the saddest part of life is having known what it looks like and saying goodbye while a quiet part of you hopelessly searches for it forever in shades of blue, red, and yellow. Perhaps all my writing is just a telling to others of the color I saw.”
― Karl Kristian Flores, Cardiac Ablation

“But what shall I do when instead of a heart this fear is beating in my body?”
― Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena
