Books belong to their readers.
moving-on break-up i-miss-you
You can love someone so much...But you can never love people as much as you can miss them.
smart nice hot
Not that smart. Not that hot. Not that nice. Not that funny. That's me: I'm not that.
matter things-that-matter feels
I feel like, like, how you matter is defined by the things that matter to you. You matter as much as the things that matter to you.
art struggle mean
Given the final futility of our struggle, is the fleeting jolt of meaning that art gives us valuable? Or is the only value in passing the time as comfortable as possible? What should a story seek to emulate, Augustus? A ringing alarm? A call to arms? A morphine drip? Of course, like all interrogation of the universe, this line of inquiry inevitably reduces us to asking what it means to be human and whether—to borrow a phrase from the angst-encumbered sixteeen-year-olds you no doubt revile—there is a point to it all.
believe labyrinth born
I was born into Bolívar's labyrinth, and so I must believe in the hope of Rabelais' Great Perhaps.
hipster crazy broken
The world may be broken, but hope is not crazy.
inspirational life hipster
It is so hard to leave—until you leave. And then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world.
simple two care
Also, I feel that crying is almost--like, aside from deaths of relatives or whatever-- totally avoidable if you follow two very simple rules: 1.Don't care too much. 2. Shut up. Everything unfortunate that has ever happened to me has stemmed from failure to follow one of the rules.
life hurt i-hate-you
Maybe there's something you're afraid to say, or someone you're afraid to love, or somewhere you're afraid to go. It's gonna hurt. It's gonna hurt because it matters.
reading writing where-you-are
This is what I love about novels - both reading them and writing them. They jump into the abyss to be with you where you are.
life perfect people
I don’t know a perfect person. I only know flawed people who are still worth loving.
inspirational real book
Books are the ultimate Dumpees: put them down and they’ll wait for you forever; pay attention to them and they always love you back.
book helping feels
Great books help you understand, and they help you feel understood.
