“Am I what they call an egoist? Or am I the opposite, a man of excessively weak spirit? I really don't know myself, but since I seem in either case to be a mass of vices, I drop steadily, inevitably, into unhappiness, and I have no specific plan to stave off my descent.”
― Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

“Even if a man keeps a secret mistress, she is a human being just the same. A person who uses a human being like a beast just for the pleasures of the moment, who disturbs the customs of the family and harms the education of his children an grandchildren, who spreads evils all over the country and leaves poison to future generations, must indeed be called a criminal.”

“Dear daughter, you are enough.
You’re beautiful. You’re intelligent. You’re important. You’re protected. You’re loved. You’re useful.
Fill yourself with positive thoughts. Feed your soul with kindness. Surround your environment with people whose interest is to expand your vision.
I love you. But due to time, I may never say it enough.
Thus, my words represent the intense positive emotions I have for you.
There will be times when I am not physically with you, but in those times, I’ll be with you in spirit, love and thought. You’re my perfect gift. And you’ve arrived at the perfect time to serve a perfect purpose.
Know yourself. Never stop learning about yourself. Strengthen your mental state because negative people may try to attack it.
Pray and meditate should you meet obstacles.
Never settle for what makes you feel pain, regret, sadness, or disappointments.
You’re worth what God says you’re worth, and nothing less.”

“But she looked powerful. She wore the sun like a shiny pin on the side of her hair.”
