Douglas Coupland
“And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can't ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it's already happened.”
Douglas Coupland, Life After God

Khaled Hosseini
“You see, some things I can teach you. Some you learn from books. But there are things that, well, you have to see and feel.”
Khaled Hosseini, A Thousand Splendid Suns

Candace Bushnell
“Maybe the past is like an anchor holdong us back. Maybe you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.”
Candace Bushnell

Haruki Murakami
“I want you always to remember me. Will you remember that I existed, and that I stood next to you here like this?”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Virginia Woolf
“So long as you write what you wish to write, that is all that matters; and whether it matters for ages or only for hours, nobody can say. But to sacrifice a hair of the head of your vision, a shade of its colour, in deference to some Headmaster with a silver pot in his hand or to some professor with a measuring-rod up his sleeve, is the most abject treachery, and the sacrifice of wealth and chastity which used to be said to be the greatest of human disasters, a mere flea-bite in comparison.”
Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own
