“When
I die
I'm sure
I will have a
Big Funeral.

Curiosity
seekers...
coming to see
if I
am really
Dead
or just
trying to make
Trouble.”
― Mari Evans

“... someone who insists on the perfect conditions to make art isn't an artist. They're an asshole.”
― Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones & The Six

“We are immortal in the dreams of our loved ones. And our dead live on after their deaths in our dreams.”
― Nina George, The Little Paris Bookshop

“Do you know that there's a halfway world between each ending and each new beginning? It's called the hurting time, Jean Perdu. It's a bog; it's where your dreams and worries and forgotten plans gather. Your steps are heavier during that time. Don't underestimate the transition, Jeanno, between farewell and new departure. Give yourself the time you need. Some thresholds are too wide to be taken in one stride.”
― Nina George, The Little Paris Bookshop
