“Experience trumps age,' he said. 'We have to find ways to experience because that's how we learn, that's how we know.”
Iain Reid, I'm Thinking of Ending Things

Iain Reid
“We can't and don't know what others are thinking. We can't and don't know what motivations people have for doing the things they do. Ever. Not entirely. This was my terrifying youthful epiphany. We just never really know anyone. I don't. Neither do you.

It's amazing that relationships can form and last under the constraints of never fully knowing. Never knowing for sure what the other person is thinking, never knowing for sure who the other person is. We can't do whatever we want. There are ways we have to act. There are things we have to say.

But we can think whatever we want.

Anyone can think anything. Thoughts are the only reality. It's true, I'm sure of it now. Thoughts are never faked or bluffed. This simple realization has stayed with me. It has bothered me for years and years. It still does.”
Iain Reid, I'm Thinking of Ending Things

“When life becomes heavy, it guides us to accept a pause, keep it down for a while, take a breather than pick it up again and carry on with new strength and energy.

I am back at zero it’s only going to be higher from now on.
I can use the pause to fool my inabilities in believing that they are the most able and become able.
I still have what I fear losing, so it’s a perfect time to start.
I can think, I can innovate and I can achieve what I desire to.
I’ am reinvented, I can cross boundaries, I can leap to increased heights seemed higher earlier”
Shahenshah Hafeez Khan

“How much of you can fall off before something important is lost?”
Iain Reid, I'm Thinking of Ending Things

Iain Reid
“I’m glad we don’t know everything.” “You’re glad?” “That we don’t know all the answers, that we can’t explain it all, like space. Maybe we’re not supposed to know all the answers. Questions are good. They’re better than answers. If you want to know more about life, how we work, how we progress, it’s questions that are important. That’s what pushes and stretches our intellect. I think questions make us feel less lonely and more connected. It’s not always about knowing. I appreciate not knowing. Not knowing is human. That’s how it should be, like space. It’s unsolvable, and it’s dark,” I say, “but not entirely.”
