Paula’s Quotes

“I am nothing in my soul if not obsessive.”
― Donna Tartt, The Secret History

1071 likes

“I experienced by observing my own body and my own soul that I sorely needed sin, sorely needed concupiscence, needed greed, vanity, and the most shameful despair to learn to stop resisting, to learn to love the world and stop comparing it to some world I only wished for and imagined, some sort of perfection I myself had dreamed up, but instead to let it be as it was and to love it and be happy to belong to it.”
― Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha
