“Caring too much for objects can destroy you. Only—if you care for a thing enough, it takes on a life of its own, doesn’t it? And isn’t the whole point of things—beautiful things—that they connect you to some larger beauty?”
― Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

“And just as music is the space between notes, just as the stars are beautiful because of the space between them, just as the sun strikes raindrops at a certain angle and throws a prism of color across the sky - so the space where I exist, and I want to keep existing, and to be quite frank I hope I die in, is exactly this middle distance: where despair struck pure otherness and created something sublime.”
― Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

“Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

“- Δηλαδή στη ζωή περισσότερο αξίζουν αυτά που χάνεις παρά αυτά που βρίσκεις, η Όρσα προχώρησε σ'ένα βιαστικό συμπέρασμα, κάτι την έκαιγε, μια εμμονή, μια αμφιβολία, κάτι.
- Αυτά που βρίσκεις ξαναχάνονται, τόνισε η Νανά τις λέξεις μία μια, αυτά που έχασες υπάρχουν για πάντα.”
― Ιωάννα Καρυστιάνη, Μικρά Αγγλία
