Water Moon

In reality, it was the choices that people didn’t even realize they were making that set the course of their lives.
“It is my belief... that the truth is generally preferable to lies.”
― Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
― Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
“But silence is not a natural environment for stories. They need words. Without them they grown pale, sicken and die. And then they haunt you.”
― The Thirteenth Tale
― The Thirteenth Tale
“Passion is passion. It's the excitement between the tedious spaces, and it doesn't matter where it's directed...It can be coins or sports or politics or horses or music or faith...the saddest people I've ever met in life are the ones who don't care deeply about anything at all.”
― Dear John
― Dear John
“A birth is not really a beginning. Our lives at the start are not really our own but only the continuation of someone else's story.”
― The Thirteenth Tale
― The Thirteenth Tale
“My gripe is not with lovers of the truth but with truth herself. What succor, what consolation is there in truth, compared to a story? What good is truth, at midnight, in the dark, when the wind is roaring like a bear in the chimney? When the lightning strikes shadows on the bedroom wall and the rain taps at the window with its long fingernails? No. When fear and cold make a statue of you in your bed, don't expect hard-boned and fleshless truth to come running to your aid. What you need are the plump comforts of a story. The soothing, rocking safety of a lie.”
― The Thirteenth Tale
