“I predict that mirror neurons will do for Psychology what DNA did for Biology.”
—Viljanur Ramachandran. (Neurologist)
“I’m lonely. Why do you think I had to learn to act so independent? I also get mad too quickly, and I hog the covers, and my second toe is longer than my big one. My hair has it’s own zip code. Plus, I get certifiably crazy when I’ve got PMS. You don’t love someone because they’re perfect. You love them in spite of the fact that they’re not.”
—Jodi Picoult (via atomos)
“And the people under the sky were also very much the same…everywhere, all over the world, hundreds or thousands of millions of people just like this, people ignorant of one another’s existence, held apart by walls of hatred and lies, and yet almost exactly the same — people who had never learned to think but were storing up in their hearts and bellies and muscles the power that would one day overturn the world.”
—George Orwell, 1984 (via pavorst)

“When I see you, the world stops. It stops and all that exists for me is you and my eyes staring at you. There’s nothing else. No noise, no other people, no thoughts or worries, no yesterday, no tomorrow. The world just stops, and it is a beautiful place, and there is only you.”
—James Frey, A Million Little Pieces (via compassio)

“What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who I need is somebody that will eat up all my free time, my ego, my attention. Somebody addicted to me. A mutual addiction.”
—Chuck Palahniuk (via jorrty)
“Everything around me is evaporating. My whole life, my memories, my imagination and its contents, my personality - it’s all evaporating. I continuously feel that I was someone else, that I felt something else, that I thought something else. What I’m attending here is a show with another set. And the show I’m attending is myself.”
—Fernando Pessoa (via stellablu)
“Don’t you think it would be wonderful to get rid of everything and everybody and just go some place where you don’t know a soul?”
—Haruki Murakami (via stellablu)

“Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.”

Dear You,
All the whispers escaping your lips
lines the edges of my arms
and pulls the windows closed-
My eyes shut and I
count on sound to guide me
to you,
to your face,
where my lips catch a letter written
on your skin.-Me
