• “Dorian, don’t deceive yourself. Life is not governed by will or intention. Life is a question of nerves and fibres and slowly built up cells in which thought hides itself and passion has its dreams. You may fancy yourself safe and think yourself strong. But a chance tone of color in a room or a morning sky, a particular perfume that you had once loved and that brings subtle memories with it, a line from a forgotten poem that you had come across again, a cadence from a piece of music that you had ceased to play-i tell you Dorian, that it is on things like these that our lives depend.”

-Wilde

• “I love sleep. My life has a tendency to fall apart when I`m awake, you know?”

• “When I go to university, I’m going to read what I want and wear black.”

• “Know first, who you are, then adorn yourself accordingly.”
