“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.”
― Mae West

“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.”
― Arundhati Roy, The Cost of Living

“So many books, so little time.”
― Frank Zappa

“That's what careless words do. They make people love you a little less.”
― Arundhati Roy, The God of Small Things
