“There are moments that cry out to be fulfilled.
Like, telling someone you love them.
Or giving your money away, all of it.

Your heart is beating, isn't it?
You're not in chains, are you?

There is nothing more pathetic than caution
when headlong might save a life,
even, possibly, your own.”
― Mary Oliver, Felicity

Katie Coyle
“Don't be the kind of person who sees groups instead of people.”
― Katie Coyle, Vivian Apple at the End of the World

Federico García Lorca
“At the heart of all great art is an essential melancholy.”
― Federico García Lorca

Doris Lessing
“What's terrible is to pretend that second-rate is first-rate. To pretend that you don't need love when you do; or you like your work when you know quite well you're capable of better.”
― Doris Lessing, The Golden Notebook

Elizabeth Gaskell
“A little credulity helps one on through life very smoothly — better than always doubting and doubting and seeing difficulties and disagreeables in everything.”
― Elizabeth Gaskell , Cranford
