• "You don't always have to tell someone you love them, you just have to give them no reason to doubt it."
    • "But it is not bravery; I have no choice. I wake up and live my life. Don’t you do the same?" — Anthony Doerr
    • "In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on." — Robert Frost
    • "Quem és? Perguntei ao desejo. Respondeu: lava. Depois pó. Depois nada." — Hilda Hilst
    • “The only person you should try to be better than is the person you were yesterday” ― Matty Mullins
    • “You come home, make some tea, sit down in your armchair and all around there’s silence. Everyone decides for themselves whether that’s loneliness or freedom.”
    • "I realized it. There are a lot of different types of people. It sounds obvious but every person has their own stories and lives. And whether that’s trivial or not is up to him or her to decide. To be honest, I always blamed others for the bad things in my life… but it all came back to me. In the end, the resentment I felt towards others was actually just resentment towards myself." — Oyasumi Punpun
    • “Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life… You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day like kiss you, or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like "maybe we should just be friends" or "how very perceptive" turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. Nothing should be able to do that. Especially not love. I hate love.” — Neil Gaiman
