I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
― Marilyn Monroe

Charles Bukowski
“Do you hate people?”

“I don't hate them...I just feel better when they're not around.”
― Charles Bukowski, Barfly

Lemony Snicket
“Wicked people never have time for reading. It's one of the reasons for their wickedness.”
― Lemony Snicket

Jacques Derrida
“To pretend, I actually do the thing: I have therefore only pretended to pretend.”
― Jacques Derrida

Robert Louis Stevenson
“I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel's sake. The great affair is to move.”
― Robert Louis Stevenson, Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes
