Philip K. Dick
“I'm not much but I'm all I have.”
Philip K Dick, Martian Time-Slip

Mother Teresa
“The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.”
Mother Teresa

Haruki Murakami
“Sometimes I feel so- I don’t know - lonely. The kind of helpless feeling when everything you’re used to has been ripped away. Like there’s no more gravity, and I’m left to drift in outer space with no idea where I’m going’
Like a little lost Sputnik?’
I guess so.”
Haruki Murakami, Sputnik Sweetheart

Phoebe Stone
“Some people are just not meant to be in this world. It's just too much for them.”
Phoebe Stone, The Boy on Cinnamon Street

Natsume Sōseki
“I often laughed, and you often gave me a dissatisfied look, till you pressed me to unfold my past before you as if it were a roll of pictures. It was then I felt respect for you. Because you unreservedly showed me your resolution to catch something alive in my being, and to sip the warm blood running in my body, by cutting my heart. At that time, I was still living, and did not want to die. So I rejected your request, promising to satisfy you some day. Now I am going to destroy my heart myself, and pour my blood into your veins. I shall be happy if a new life can enter into your bosom, when my heart has stopped beating.”
Natsume Soseki, Kokoro
