“Why is time like that? Why does it slow down in the places you don’t want it to, but it speeds away when you’re happy?”
― Robin Roe, A List of Cages

“There is truth in stories,” said Arthur. “There is truth in one of your paintings, boy or in a sunset or a couplet from Homer. Fiction is truth, even if it is not a fact. If you believe only in facts and forget stories, your brain will live, but your heart will die.”
― Cassandra Clare, Lord of Shadows

“It’s the war between what’s the right thing to do and what you feel is right?
It’s the battle between who you were and now where you’re headed
It’s the leap of faith that you need to take to get through the rough paths,
It’s the fear that you need to leave behind to do the daring things,
And you stay stuck wondering,
What to do?
Where to go?
Why does life get challenging?
Would I be ever able to make it?
Queries eat you up alive,
Answers seem not to care,
And at that moment, miracles happen out of nowhere,
Just open your eyes and see the turned tables,
You're given a reward after being tested.”
― Hareem Ch, Muse Buzz

“Sometimes we feel lonely,
Like another brick
Another wall
Like no one needs you at all.
Life isn't supposed to be like that,
Just think for a while;
You’re the brick the wall needs,
You're a masterpiece.
Open your eyes,
And you'll see
All the love around you;
It was all the time beside you,
You were too blind to realize
Don´t you?”
― Hareem Ch, Muse Buzz
