“To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest. To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh. To live is to be willing to die over and over again. ”

“In time, in time they tell me, I'll not feel so bad. I don't want time to heal me. There's a reason I'm like this.

I can't say goodbye.”
― China Miéville, The Scar
