“We must believe in our souls that we are somebody, that we are significant, that we are worthful, and we must walk the streets of life every day with this sense of dignity and this sense of somebody-ness.”
― Colson Whitehead, The Nickel Boys

“It is so real, this dream sequence, so intense, that when I wake, or drop back into reality, it is as though I have just walked through the wrong door and my body is filled with panic”
― Heine Bakkeid, Jeg skal savne deg i morgen

“The prospective jumper doesn't realise. He's wrapped up in himself and what he intends to do. But, then, somebody stops. And they don't really know what they are doing. They're not a trained negotiator or counsellor. But they have been a human being for their entire life.”
― Will Carver, Nothing Important Happened Today

“We are so connected that we have become disconnected. We can’t have a thought, we have to have an opinion. Freedom of speech has gone too fucking far when we feel the need to share everything. When we filter the image of ourselves but feel no need to filter what we say out loud, hidden behind a new status and picture of ourselves when we were twenty pounds lighter.”
― Will Carver, Nothing Important Happened Today
