“Âm nhạc không nằm ở những nốt nhạc mà ở cái khoảng không ở giữa những nốt nhạc. Giữa những nốt nhạc là âm nhạc. Giữa những con người là tình yêu. Những nốt nhạc và những con người không có ý nghĩa. Ý nghĩa nằm ở giữa chúng, ở giữa họ”
― Đoàn Minh Phượng, Và Khi Tro Bụi

“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every 'superstar,' every 'supreme leader,' every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there — on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”
― Carl Sagan

“Love is a form of prejudice. You love what you need, you love what makes you feel good, you love what is convenient. How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them? But you'll never meet them. All right, so we do the best we can. Granted. But we must still realize that love is just the result of a chance encounter. Most people make too much of it. On these grounds a good fuck is not to be entirely scorned. But that's the result of a chance meeting too. You're damned right. Drink up. We'll have another.”
― Charles Bukowski

“I miss you deeply, unfathomably, senselessly, terribly.”
― Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena
