“kukirim padamu beberapa patah kata yang sudah langka –
jika suatu hari nanti mereka mencapaimu, rahasiakan, sia-sia aja memahamiku”
― Sapardi Djoko Damono, Hujan Bulan Juni

“Waktu menjadi siang yang padam berminggu-minggu. Menggenang seperti kenangan yang ditinggalkan jalan pulang.”
― Aan Mansyur

“aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana;
dengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkan
kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu

aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana;
dengan isyarat yang tak sempat disampaikan awan kepada hujan yang menjadikannya tiada”
― Sapardi Djoko Damono

“Change doesn't happen overnight. There's no button that's pushed to magically alter everything. Change happens little by little. Day by day. Hour by hour.
It's the ticking of a secondhand, moving painstakingly, as it makes its way around the clock. You don't realize it until it's already over, the minute gone forever, as you're thrust right into the next one, the time still ticking away, whether you want it to or not.
Before long you have a hard time remembering the world as it once was, the person you were then, too focused on the world around you instead.
A world full of promise. A world full of excitement.”
― J.M. Darhower, Monster in His Eyes
