“It's a good thing to be loved, even late.”
― John Steinbeck

“Let me just tell you this, Watanabe," said Midori, pressing her cheek against my neck. "I'm a real, live girl, with real, live blood gushing through my veins. You're holding me in your arms and I'm telling you that I love you. I'm ready to do anything you tell me to do. I may be a little bit mad, but I'm a good girl, and honest, and I work hard, I'm kind of cute, I have nice boobs, I'm a good cook, and my father left me a trust fund. I mean, I'm a real bargain, don't you think? If you don't take me, I'll end up going somewhere else.”
― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“Sẽ đánh liều hôn vai em thơm mênh mang
Sẽ nắm tay nhau thật chặt
Để chúng ta không tuột khỏi cái đêm
trong veo như thời thơ dại ấy”
― Nguyễn Thiên Ngân, Mình Phải Sống Như Mùa Hè Năm Ấy

“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is a rapture on the lonely shore,
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:
I love not Man the less, but Nature more,
From these our interviews, in which I steal
From all I may be, or have been before,
To mingle with the Universe, and feel
What I can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal.”
― Lord Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage
