“Eleanor was right. She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn't supposed to look nice; it was supposed to make you feel something.”
Rainbow Rowell, Eleanor & Park

Χρήστος Βακαλόπουλος
“Κάποτε υπήρχε ελάχιστο παρόν, όσο ακριβώς χρειαζόταν ώστε να μην ξεχνιέται η μέρα, να μην λυγίζει κάτω από το βάρος των αιώνων. Τότε ήταν συμπαθητικό το παρόν, ήταν ντροπαλό, άκουγε τους μεγαλύτερους του, περίμενε την σειρά του, δεν έβγαζε γλώσσα, δεν κρατούσε κακία, έλεγε τον πόνο του. Τότε ήταν τρυφερό το παρόν γιατί είχε καεί η γούνα του από τον έρωτα. Είχε αποφασίσει να είναι ευγενικό, να στέκεται στην άκρη και να παρατηρεί, να μην προδίδει έτσι εύκολα τα βάσανά του να μην διεκδικεί έτσι εύκολα τα δικαιώματά του, να μην χτυπάει το ποδαράκι του στο πάτωμα, να μην μουτρώνει, να μην κακολογεί, να μην γκρινιάζει.”
Χρήστος Βακαλόπουλος, Η γραμμή του ορίζοντος

Warsan Shire
“1. I’m lonely so I do lonely things
2. Loving you was like going to war; I never came back the same.
3. You hate women, just like your father and his father, so it runs in your blood.
4. I was wandering the derelict car park of your heart looking for a ride home.
5. You’re a ghost town I’m too patriotic to leave.
6. I stay because you’re the beginning of the dream I want to remember.
7. I didn’t call him back because he likes his girls voiceless.
8. It’s not that he wants to be a liar; it’s just that he doesn’t know the truth.
9. I couldn’t love you, you were a small war.
10. We covered the smell of loss with jokes.
11. I didn’t want to fail at love like our parents.
12. You made the nomad in me build a house and stay.
13. I’m not a dog.
14. We were trying to prove our blood wrong.
15. I was still lonely so I did even lonelier things.
16. Yes, I’m insecure, but so was my mother and her mother.
17. No, he loves me he just makes me cry a lot.
18. He knows all of my secrets and still wants to kiss me.
19. You were too cruel to love for a long time.
20. It just didn’t work out.
21. My dad walked out one afternoon and never came back.
22. I can’t sleep because I can still taste him in my mouth.
23. I cut him out at the root, he was my favorite tree, rotting, threatening the foundations of my home.
24. The women in my family die waiting.
25. Because I didn’t want to die waiting for you.
26. I had to leave, I felt lonely when he held me.
27. You’re the song I rewind until I know all the words and I feel sick.
28. He sent me a text that said “I love you so bad.”
29. His heart wasn’t as beautiful as his smile
30. We emotionally manipulated one another until we thought it was love.
31. Forgive me, I was lonely so I chose you.
32. I’m a lover without a lover.
33. I’m lovely and lonely.
34. I belong deeply to myself .”
Warsan Shire

“I feel like a part of my soul has loved you since the beginning of everything.
Maybe we’re from the same star.”
