““Follow the tugs in your heart. I think that everyone gets these gentle urges and should listen to them. Even if they sound absolutely insane, they may be worth going for.””

“The worst thing about death is the fact that when a man is dead its impossible any longer to undo the harm you have done him, or to do the good you haven’t done him. They say: live in such a way as to be always ready to die. I would say: live in such a way that anyone can die without you having anything to regret.”

- Leo Tolstoy (via erika-june)

“Everyone’s just looking for reasons to wake up and get out of bed, some do it for nothing but a kiss, perhaps a cup of coffee, others have a harder time; no train to catch, no hand to hold, no reasons at all.”

“But even so, every now and then I would feel a violent stab of loneliness. The very water I drank, the very air I breathed, would feel like long, sharp needles. The pages of a book in my hands would take on the threatening metallic gleam of razor blades. I could hear the roots of loneliness creeping through me when the world was hushed at four o’clock in the morning.”

- Haruki Murakami, “The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle” (via lifeinpoetry)

“To my dismay the world could not be fucked, smoked or snorted — I wished I could skip it along an ocean. It was okay at an acceptable distance. Atoms were beautiful. Stars were beautiful. It was just everything in between. I didn’t feel right. Something shadowy bubbled up in my stomach, pushed down on my chest and whispered “There’s something wrong with you”, something I could never trace to its source. I was meant to be alone. I was a burden. I had to slit my throat.”

“Sometimes I’ll be talking to someone, and I’ll be like ‘Yeah, I’ve been really lonely lately’ and they’ll be like ‘Well we should hang out!’ and I’m like ‘No, that’s not what I meant. That’s not what I meant at all.’”

- John Mulaney (via oxfay)
