“Life is not governed by will or intention. Life is a question of nerves, and fibres, and slowly built-up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams. You may fancy yourself safe, and think yourself strong. But a chance tone of colour in a room or a morning sky, a particular perfume that you had once loved and that brings sublte memories with it, a line from a piece of music that you had ceased to play--I tell you Dorian, that it is on things like these that our lives depend.”
― Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray and Other Writings

“It's only you," whispered Orphan Girl. She was holding his hand crouched down next to him. "Why do you hate you?"

Ronan stood up, stretching out his arm like he would to Chainsaw.
"I don't," he said.
And he woke up.”

“Just go on dancing with me like this forever and I'll never tire. We'll scrape our shoe on the stars and hang upside down from the moon.”
― Stephen King, The Long Walk
