“It’s weird,” I say. “For me—I can’t find books dark enough right now.” The things I’m loving these days: things where everything is not okay, and that’s okay—or not. Montaigne incredulous: “Did you think you would never reach the point toward which you were constantly heading?”
Nina Riggs, The Bright Hour: A Memoir of Living and Dying

Elizabeth Gilbert
“To be fully seen by somebody, then, and be loved anyhow - this is a human offering that can border on miraculous.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Committed: A Skeptic Makes Peace with Marriage

Sun Tzu
“Every battle is won before it’s ever fought.”
Sun Tzu

Sun Tzu
“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity”
Sun-Tzu, A Arte da Guerra

Haruki Murakami
“Hatred is like a long, dark shadow. Not even the person it falls upon knows where it comes from, in most cases. It is like a two-edged sword. When you cut the other person, you cut yourself. The more violently you hack at the other person, the more violently you hack at yourself. It can often be fatal. But it is not easy to dispose of. Please be careful, Mr.Okada. It is very dangerous. Once it has taken root in your heart, hatred is the most difficult think in the world to shake off.”
Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
