Scientific people think they're looking outwards but they're not. They think that emotional people only look inwards but they don't. I think the best scientists are the ones that look both ways.
The Book of Tomorrow (Cecelia Ahern)
one minute
i was asleep
with no intention
of going out, the next
i was fully dressed
(sort of)
and out the door
my life continues
whether or not
i choose
to participate
Dreaming Nightmares, Part VII (Puma Perl)
Retirement was this time in the future when I would have enough money to do what I wanted. I would be free to
participate in the activities I liked, and could spend every day in a way that fulfilled me. Then one evening, after
a particularly unfulfilling day at work, I came to the conclusion that there had to be a better way. Over time I
learned that I had gotten confused about how things should work. I realized that for me, every day is an
opportunity to do whatever I want. I don't need to wait until 'retirement'.
The Why Café (John P. Strelecky)
Maybe love is thinking that everytime your partner does or says something mundane you want to start a
Mexican wave from here to Uzbekistan in utter delight.
The Book of Tomorrow (Cecelia Ahern)
What should I do about the wild and the tame? The wild heart that wants to be free, and the tame heart that
wants to come home. I want to be held. I don't want you to come too close. I want you to scoop me up and
bring me home at nights. I don't want to tell you where I am. I want to keep a place among the rocks where
no one can find me. I want to be with you.
Jeanette Winterson
Our life is made up of time; our days are measured in hours, our pay measured by those hours, our knowledge
is measured by years. We grab a few quick minutes in our busy day to have a coffee break. We rush back to
our desks, we watch the clock, we live by appointments. And yet your time eventually runs out and you wonder
in your heart of hearts if those seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years and decades were being
spent the best way they possibly could. In other words, if you could change anything, would you?
Where Rainbows End (Cecelia Ahern)
You know that feeling? That feeling when you just want the right thing to fall into the right place, not only
because it's right, but because it will mean that such a thing is still possible.
Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (Devid Levithan)
I learned something important that night. You shouldn't try to stop everything from happening. Sometimes
you're supposed to feel awkward. Sometimes you're supposed to be vulnerable in front of people.
Sometimes it's necessary because it's all part of you getting to the next part of yourself, the next day.
The Book of Tomorrow (Cecelia Ahern)
That sound you hear, that's the sound of someone realising that sometimes, it's easier to change the
world than it is your own life.
i wrote this for you
I can only hope that the answers will come to me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, I
can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to.
Donnie Darko
Look at the sky: that is for you. Look at each person’s face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you.
And the street itself, and the ground under the street, and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these
things are for you. They are as much for you as they are for other people. Remember this when you wake up
in the morning and think you have nothing.
Miranda July
I may never be happy, but tonight I am content. Nothing more than an empty house, the warm hazy weariness
from a day spent setting strawberry runners in the sun, a glass of cool sweet milk, and a shallow dish of
blueberries bathed in cream. Now I know how people can live without books, without college. When one is so
tired at the end of a day one must sleep, and at the next dawn there are more strawberry runners to set, and
so one goes on living, near the earth. At times like this I'd call myself a fool to ask for more.
