George Eliot
“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”
George Eliot

Olga Tokarczuk
“Standing there on the embankment, staring into the current, I realized that—in spite of all the risks involved—a thing in motion will always be better than a thing at rest; that change will always be a nobler thing than permanence; that that which is static will degenerate and decay, turn to ash, while that which is in motion is able to last for all eternity.”
Olga Tokarczuk, Flights

Ian McEwan
“This is how the entire course of a life can be changed: by doing nothing.”
Ian McEwan, On Chesil Beach
tags: life

Zelda Fitzgerald
“She refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring.”
Zelda Fitzgerald, The Collected Writings

Edna St. Vincent Millay
“Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you like hell.”
Edna St. Vincent Millay
