19 days of excerpts from books/poems, movie scenes, and song lyrics along with my totally unrelated art:

oh, yes
there are worse things than
being alone
but it often takes decades
to realize this
and most often
when you do
it& #39;s too late
and there& #39;s nothing worse than
too late.

-Charles Bukowski

And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself?
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being
#3 When I look at small things, I think I shall go on living: drops of rain, leather gloves shrunk by being wet...When I look at something too big, I want to die: the Diet Building, or a map of the world...
Kobo Abe, The Box Man

“My mouth is a fire escape.
The words coming out
don& #39;t care that they are naked.
There is something burning in here. “

And I& #39;d ask you about war, you& #39;d probably throw Shakespeare at me, right, "once more unto the breach dear friends." But you& #39;ve never been near one. You& #39;ve never held your best friend& #39;s head in your lap, watch him gasp his last breath looking to you for help.
-Good Will Hunting

While you& #39;re doing fine,
there& #39;s some people and I
who have a really tough time
getting through this life
so excuse us
while we sing to the sky!

What horrifies me most is the idea of being useless: well educated, brilliantly promising, and fading out into an indifferent middle age.

-Slyvia Plath

Imagine there& #39;s no countries
It isn& #39;t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Livin& #39; life in peace
You
You may say I& #39;m a dreamer
But I& #39;m not the only one

-John Lennon

“My friends, I am not saying I know for a fact that there is no God. All I am saying is that if there is a divine force behind the universe, it is laughing hysterically at the religions we’ve created in an attempt to define it.”

Origin, Dan Brown

We like companionship, see, but we can& #39;t stand to be around people for very long. So we go get ourselves lost, come back for a while, then get the hell out again.

Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild
