Milan Kundera
“and when nobody wakes you up in the morning, and when nobody waits for you at night, and when you can do whatever you want. what do you call it, freedom or loneliness?”
Milan Kundera

Lang Leav
“In the wrong hands, your past is a weapon.”
Lang Leav, Love Looks Pretty on You

John Koenig
“OZURIE feeling torn between the life you want and the life you have”
John Koenig, The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows

Cal Newport
“As Virginia Woolf argues in her 1929 feminist manifesto, A Room of One’s Own, this imbalance should not come as a surprise. Woolf would agree that solitude is a prerequisite for original and creative thought, but she would then add that women had been systematically denied both the literal and figurative room of their own in which to cultivate this state. To Woolf, in other words, solitude is not a pleasant diversion, but instead a form of liberation from the cognitive oppression that results in its absence.”
Cal Newport, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World

John Koenig
“Such is life. Some days you wake up in Kansas, and some days in Oz. Sometimes the world feels pretty much stuck in place, and you’ve made your peace with that. Why waste time on silly pipe dreams, when there are socks to darn and pigs to feed? At other times, you look around and see how exciting the world can be, how flexible and arbitrary things are, how easy it might be to cast aside your old life and get to work building the one you really want.”
John Koenig, The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows
