"And the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time"
- T.S. Eliot
"I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections
Or the beauty of innuendoes,
The blackbird whistling
Or just after."
Wallace Stevens
"The chemistry of mind is different from the chemistry of love. The mind is careful, suspicious, he advances little by little. He advices “Be careful, protect yourself” Whereas love says “Let yourself, go!” The mind is strong, never fells down, while love hurts itself, fells into ruins. But isn’t it in ruins that we mostly find the treasures? A broken heart hides so many treasures."
Shams Tabrizi
"It was a sign of growing up, when the dark made no more difference to you than the day."
Roddy Doyle
The Kooks - Junk of the Heart (Happy)
Let me make you happy,
I wanna make you feel alive
"Perhaps love is essential because it’s unnecessary."
Julian Barnes
"The purest and most thoughtful minds are those which love color the most."
John Ruskin
