“Sometimes we get so caught up in our daily lives that we forget to take the time out to enjoy the beauty in life. It’s like we’re zombies. Look up and take your headphones out. Say “Hi” to someone you see and maybe give a hug to someone who looks like they’re hurting.”
― Keanu Reeves

“Tot ceea ce făcea era magic, având puterea de a transforma stările, prin intermediul administrării unor substanțe. Părea a fi Dumnezeul propriilor sentimente, pentru că avea cheia inhibării instinctelor și a detașării complete de ermetica ființă. Întindea linii albe, lungi și groase pe oglinda de pe masă și, apropiindu-se, își zărea chipul, asumându-și viciul. Pentru a scurta traseul dintre realitate și vis, folosea un pai, prin care inspira pe nas praful alb, strălucitor, iar, în câteva secunde, se cufunda în altă lume - acolo unde totul este mai ușor.”

“Another revelation: how much laughter is a part of grief. Laughter is tightly braided into our family argot, and now we laugh remembering my father, but somewhere in the background there is a haze of disbelief. The laughter trails off. The laughter becomes tears and becomes sadness and becomes rage. I am unprepared for my wretched, roaring rage. In the face of this inferno that is sorrow, I am callow and unformed.”
― Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Notes on Grief

“The point of desperation is often the point of truth. When things are wrong, we need to reach rock bottom in order for change to happen. We sometimes need to feel trapped in order to find the way out. We don’t meet ourselves in the light and air. We don’t understand the radio when the song is playing. We sometimes need to smash the thing to see how it is made.”
― Matt Haig, The Life Impossible
