― Benjamin Alire Sáenz, Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

“The problem with trying hard not to think about something was that you thought about it even more.”

“[...]the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes “Awww!”
― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

“Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.”
