Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Somewhere beyond right and wrong, there is a garden. I will meet you there.”
Rumi

Sally Rooney
“If people appeared to behave pointlessly in grief, it was only because human life was pointless, and this was the truth that grief revealed.”
Sally Rooney, Normal People

Beau Taplin
“I learned much too late
that what you called love
was nothing but a
desperate and irrational
fear of a life lived alone.”
Beau Taplin

André Aciman
“In your place, if there is pain, nurse it, and if there is a flame, don’t snuff it out, don’t be brutal with it. Withdrawal can be a terrible thing when it keeps us awake at night, and watching others forget us sooner than we’d want to be forgotten is no better. We rip out so much of ourselves to be cured of things faster than we should that we go bankrupt by the age of thirty and have less to offer each time we start with someone new. But to feel nothing so as not to feel anything — what a waste!”
André Aciman, Call Me by Your Name

Elizabeth I
“The past cannot be cured.”
Queen Elizabeth I
