“I shunned the face of man; all sound of joy or complacency was torture to me; solitude was my only consolation—deep, dark, death-like solitude.”
― Mary Shelley, Frankenstein 1818

“I‘m no good at loving people but…


I will love you
like the darkness loves the stars.
I'm the goddess of the night.
I will smear my ink
over your skin,
and leave paper cuts
where the light can get in.
I will break you
then make you whole.
You‘ll be the moon
lighting up the sky.
But I will never be done –
we‘ll dance together
until my darkness is gone.”
― Nessie Q., I'm Sorry. I Know It's Too Late... But This is How I Loved You

“...lightning forked toward the dry earth, the white light streaking across the sky as if bony fingers reached into the purpling cloud. Thunder shuddered through the early night, the vibrations of it rolling through the cracked soil.”
― Alannah K. Pearson, Bone Arrow

“... there is a great need in all of us to be accepted, but you must trust what is unique or different about yourself, even if it is odd or unpopular.”
― N.H. Kleinbaum, Dead Poets Society
