- "When you first arrive in a new city nothing makes sense. Everything is unknown, virgin. After you’ve lived here, walked these streets you’ll know them inside out, you’ll know these people.

Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst... And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life." -American Beauty

They say you have to live in a place to know it, but you have to come fresh tae really see it.” -Irvine Welsh
