John Steinbeck
“All great and precious things are lonely.”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden

Lucian Blaga
“Liniste

Atâta linişte-i în jur de-mi pare că aud
cum se izbesc de geamuri razele de lună.

În piept
mi s-a trezit un glas străin
şi-un cântec cânta-n mine-un dor
ce nu-i al meu.

Se spune că strămoşii cari au murit fără de vreme,
cu sânge tânăr înca-n vine,
cu patimi mari în sânge,
cu soare viu în patimi,
vin,
vin sa-şi trăiasca mai departe
în noi
viaţa netrăita.

Atâta linişte-i în jur de-mi pare că aud
cum se izbesc de geamuri razele de lună.

O, cine ştie - suflete,-n ce piept îţi vei cânta
şi tu odată peste veacuri
pe coarde dulci de linişte,
pe harfă de-ntuneric - dorul sugrumat
şi frânta bucurie de viaţă? Cine ştie?
Cine ştie?

(1919)”
― Lucian Blaga, Poemele luminii

Stephen  King
“Outside, daylight was bleeding slowly toward dusk.”
― Stephen King, The Running Man

Vladimir Nabokov
“I loved you. I was a pentapod monster, but I loved you. I was despicable and brutal, and turpid, and everything, mais je t’aimais, je t’aimais! And there were times when I knew how you felt, and it was hell to know it, my little one. Lolita girl, brave Dolly Schiller.”
― Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

Amanda Lovelace
“for the boy who lived.

thank you for inspiring me to be

the girl who survived.

you may have

a lightning bolt

to show for it

but my body is a

lightning storm.”
― Amanda Lovelace, The Princess Saves Herself in This One
