When I’m unpacking back at home and find a receipt from my favorite restaurant.
Bless.
"There’s a hazardous sadness to the first sounds of someone else’s work in the morning; it’s as if stillness experiences pain in being broken. The first minute of the work day reminds you of all the other minutes as individuals. Only after other minutes have joined the naked, lonely first minute does the day become more safely integrated in its dayness."
- Freedom, Jonathan Franzen
"Long after her death I felt her thoughts floating through mine. Long before we met we had had the same dreams."
- Lolita, Vladimir Nabokov

"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin — real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."
"Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I’ve ever known."
- Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters
