Louis-Ferdinand Céline
“You can lose your way groping among the shadows of the past. It's frightening how many people and things there are in a man's past that have stopped moving. The living people we've lost in the crypts of time sleep so soundly side by side with the dead that the same darkness envelops them all.

As we grow older, we no longer know whom to awaken, the living or the dead.”
Louis-Ferdinand Celine, Journey to the End of the Night

Friedrich Nietzsche
“You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.”
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Terry Tempest Williams
“I fear silence because it leads me to myself, a self I may not wish to confront. It asks that I listen. And in listening, I am taken to an unknown place. Silence leaves me alone in a place of feeling. It is not necessarily a place of comfort.”
Terry Tempest Williams, When Women Were Birds: Fifty-four Variations on Voice

Jim Carrey
“The effect you have on others is the most valuable currency there is.”
Jim Carrey

Anne Rice
“None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are.”
Anne Rice, The Vampire Lestat
