Nature doesn’t sustain that which only lives for a day. It pours the whole of itself into each moment. Life’s bounty is in its flow.

Attention is the beginning of devotion…distraction and care are incompatible…you [can only] truly love…or savor the moment only to the extent of which you could hold your attention.

[Let] time use you. Approaching life not as an opportunity to implement your predetermined plans for success, but as a matter of responding to the needs of your place and your moment in history.

…because for us it is even more necessary not to have leisure to stop and think. Haste is universal, because everyone is in flight from himself… or we plan, compulsively, because the alternative is to confront how little control over the future we really have…our cultures ideas is that you alone control your schedule… [because is scary that most of what we want depends on cooperation with others].

Really good so far. Candid. Authentic.

I’m listening to audio book and love it. I feel like someone is reading an Irish Pans Labyrinth to me.

This big foot guys is intense but runs a tight ship I respect

I want a good Japanese Chefs knife now.

Don’t order fish on Monday’s, brunch is the worst time to eat out, and if the bathroom is dirty don’t eat there.

“What you must always remember, is that they are animals and that whatever their bodies do affects their souls. It is funny how mortals always picture us as putting things into their minds: in reality our best work is done by keeping things out.”

But the best of all is to let him read no science, but to give him a grand general idea that he knows it all and that everything he happens to have picked up in casual talk and reading “is the result if ‘modem investigation’

Bone deep yearning…idiot yearning, yearning so strong it bends you , buckles you, like waves or miracles.

That’s when everything became super saturated. One of those memories you can squeeze like a rag and watch the details drip and pool.

This dude woke up as a bug?!?! Wild

Okay now we are seeing homie be deep deeep deep in the friend zone

The genesis of everyone’s pain had to be external…legislators legislated, building walls…”the pain we feel comes from them not ourselves”…and ppl cheered…but the next day they’d wake up and find that what hurt in them still hurt.

Idk I find these characters annoying and I’m trying to figure out why.

[after my grief day] nothing has changed… I was still the same person. It seems very American to expect grief to change something. Like a token you cash in

Behind me is silence, and ahead of me is silence… you’ll find your real ending once you stop looking for it…I think real endings… work their way in from the outside

This dude is thirsty as hell and giving lowkey pick-me vibes… I’m not sure where this is going.

It feels so American to discount dreams because they’re not built of objects, of things you can hold and catalogue and then put in a safe. Dreamed give us voices, visions, ideas, mortal terrors, and desperate beloveds. Nothing counts more to an individual, or less to an empire.

“To have a purpose is in itself an arrival “

Our world was made of intricate, interlocking strands of music — anger and resentment, despair, loyalty, trust, humor, contempt, forgiveness, alliances switching and switching. Rose, Henry, Brian, primary colors, however harsh, however outrageous, as long as the parts fit together into the workings of a larger whole. A tessellation, a giant unity. Love.

Woah, writhing the first few pages, I’m locked in to this ire eerie world

“[a] stone is full of potential energy…all the energy get converted into kinetic energy, action… it’s what makes stones powerful. Sometimes I feel like I’m walking around all stuffed up with potential energy. A stone hanging in the air with no knife sharp enough to cut the rope”

“What was there to complain about…life happened until it didn’t. There was no choice in it. To say no to a new day would be unthinkable. So each morning you said yes, then stepped into the consequences. “

It’s interesting the places we make within ourselves to cope with the harsh realities of life.

It’s wild what fear motivates these characters to do.
