Hanya Yanagihara
“When did pursuing your ambitions cross the line from brave into foolhardy? How did you know when to stop?”
Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life

Iain S. Thomas
“The feeling you get when you think of something amazing and then forget it and know that it felt amazing but you cant remember the details. Then, minutes later, you remember it again and you’re so grateful because you nearly lost something, forever. Except, this time, its a person. Not an idea.”
Iain S. Thomas

Iain S. Thomas
“Sometimes I have a weird dream that we’re all relatively brief sparks of consciousness that live on a rock circling a ball of fire.”
Iain S. Thomas, How to be Happy: Not a Self-Help Book. Seriously

Iain S. Thomas
“Yet you still value the things you've lost the most. Because the things you've lost are still perfect in your head. They never rusted. They never broke. They are made of the memories you once had, which only grew rosier and brighter, day by day. They are made of the dreams of how wonderful things could have been and must never suffer the indignity of actually still existing. Of being real. Of having flaws. Of breaking and deteriorating. Only the things you no longer have will always be perfect.”
Iain S. Thomas

Milan Kundera
“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
