“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.” <br /> ― Louise Erdrich, The Painted Drum

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they&#039;ve all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe.&quot; -Neil Gaiman<br /> <br /> &quot;Come with uncle,&quot; I said, &quot;and hear all proper. Hear angel trumpets and devil trombones. You are invited.&quot;<br /> &quot;If a man cannot choose, he ceases to be a man.&quot; -A Clockwork Orange
