“And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good.”
― John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“Remember: The rules, like streets, can only take you to known places.”

“What makes somebody nice or unpleasant to be around is the way they communicate. When people are fucked up, their communication is fucked up.”
― Ryū Murakami, In the Miso Soup

“I am thinking of beauty again, how some things are hunted because we have deemed them beautiful. If, relative to the history of our planet, an individual life is so short, a blink, as they say, then to be gorgeous, even from the day you're born to the day you die, is to be gorgeous only briefly.”
