Francesca Lia Block
“The girl in the mirror wasn't who I wanted to be and her life wasn't the one I wanted to have.”
Francesca Lia Block, Pink Smog

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
“And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

James Salter
“Sometimes you are aware when your great moments are happening, and sometimes they rise from the past. Perhaps it's the same with people.”
James Salter, Burning the Days: Recollection

Douglas Adams
“A life that is burdened with expectations is a heavy life. Its fruit is sorrow and disappointment.”
Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul

Marcel Proust
“The bonds between ourselves and another person exists only in our minds. Memory as it grows fainter loosens them, and notwithstanding the illusion by which we want to be duped and which, out of love, friendship, politeness, deference, duty, we dupe other people, we exist alone. Man is the creature who cannot escape from himself, who knows other people only in himself, and when he asserts the contrary, he is lying.”
Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time
