“It's like, when someone asks you how you are and even though you want to say that you feel like shit, that you're miserable, that you cry until you gag and spend most of your time imagining ways to kill yourself, instead you just say, 'Fine, thanks.”
― Aryn Kyle, Boys and Girls Like You and Me: Stories

“يا لغرابة الرجال ! يقضون العمر في القتال ضد الكهنة. ثم يقدمون كتب الصلوات هدية.”

“He misses her so much that sometimes he can’t bear existing in his own body.”
― Fredrik Backman, A Man Called Ove

“We have created society and that society has conditioned us. Our minds are tortured and heavily conditioned by a morality which is not moral; the morality of the society is immorality, beacuse society admits and encourages violence, greed, competition, ambition and so on, which are essentially immoral. There is no love, consideration, affection, tenderness, and the 'moral respectability' of the society is utterly disorderly.
A mind that has been trained for thousand of years to accept, to obey and conform, cannot possibly be highly sensitive and therefore highly virtuous. We are caught in this trap.”
― Jiddu Krishnamurti, You Are the World
