“There is no greater sorrow than to recall in misery the time when we were happy.”
― Cassandra Clare, Chain of Thorns

“No matter how much time passed, the sadness never went away. I was carrying this feeling around—like there was a gaping hole left open inside me. And instead of disappearing, the emptiness inside me seemed to grow day by day.”
― Satoshi Yagisawa, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop

“I don't think humans are some self-driving car racing toward the finish line. We must own our lives, start the engine ourselves, and sometimes put on brakes.”

“I believe there are two ways to love your life, Penny. The first is to work hard to change your life when you feel unsatisfied.'
'That seems about right.' Penny nods.
'The second option may look easier, but is actually more difficult. And even if you do change your life through the first option, you must ultimately get through the second to be at complete peace.'
'And what is that?'
'To accept your life as it is and be grateful. It's easier said than done. But if you can do it, I believe this will help you realise happiness has just been around the corner.”
