“Everyone knows you can't really trust any feeling you have at night - and the later the hour, the less trustworthy it is. Anything you feel after 10pm is suspect, anything after midnight should be discounted altogether.”

“My Dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it's much better to be killed by a lover.
-Falsely yours”

“The ignorant learn from none,
the simple learn from some,
the intelligent learn from many,
but enlightened learn from all.
The arrogant learn from none,
the gracious learn from some,
the patient learn from many,
but the humble learn from all.
The disinterested learn from none,
the curious learn from some,
the keen learn from many,
but the disciplined learn from all.”

“If the past could be changed,
it would not exist.
If the future could be stopped,
it would not survive.
If the present could be avoided,
it would not prevail.
Time is everyone’s acquaintance,
life is everyone’s friend,
death is everyone’s enemy,
and existence is everyone’s soulmate.”
