“El dolor y el sufrimiento son siempre inevitables para una gran inteligencia y un corazón profundo. Los hombres realmente grandes, creo, tienen una gran tristeza en la tierra.”
― Fiódor Dostoievski

“Sometimes you need to let someone go, even if you care about them deeply, because it hurts too much to keep them close.”
― Jennifer Cosgrove, A Boy Worth Knowing

“As far as we can tell from a purely scientific viewpoint, human life has absolutely no meaning. Humans are the outcome of blind evolutionary processes that operate without goal or purpose. Our actions are not part of some divine cosmic plan, and if planet earth were to blow up tomorrow morning, the universe would probably keep going about its business as usual. As far as we can tell at this point, human subjectivity would not be missed. Hence any meaning that people inscribe to their lives is just a delusion.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind

“Maybe there were no villains in my mother’s story at all. Just men and women, trying to do their best by each other. And failing.”
― John Boyne, The Heart's Invisible Furies
