“The power of language. Preserving the ephemeral; giving form to dreams, permanence to sparks of sunlight.”
― Penelope Lively, Moon Tiger

“Someone who had authority, or should have had authority and did not exercise authority. I do not know. But someone sometime let you forget how to choose, and what. Someone let your peoples forget it was the only thing of importance, choosing. So completely forgetting that when I say choose to you you make expressions with your face such as “Herrrrrre we are going.” Someone taught that temples are for fanatics only and took away the temples and promised there was no need for temples. And now there is no shelter. And no map for finding the shelter of a temple. And you all stumble about in the dark, this confusion of permissions.”
― David Foster Wallace.

“You're the beginning,
You're the ending,
You're the one who rides the waves of my emotions,
One who makes me compassionate,
One who's the light of my dark self,
I'll be the one always testing your patience,
I'll be the one always annoying you,
I'll be the one always hurting you,
Why?
Because I know you'll always be there to bear the jokes I crack,
To tolerate my inside chaos,
To see my vulnerable self,
To misinterpreting your actions & intentions,
I'll always be hardcore to deal with,
Taking you over the edge,
Because that's what I only know.”
― Hareem Ch, Hankering for Tranquility
