― Jack Kerouac, On the Road

“Tell me anything.

Revoke our time apart.
Love me fierce in danger.”
― James Ellroy, White Jazz

“Sometimes when you're young, you have moments of such happiness, you think you're living on someplace magical, like Atlantis must have been. Then we grow up and our hearts break into two.”
