生活
Writing is the only way I have to explain my own life to myself.
It is not necessary to take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.
We are all ghosts of ourselves, haunting the places we once lived.
You cannot find peace by avoiding life.
"We live in time—it holds us and moulds us—but I’ve never felt I understood it very well."
"Books say: She did this because. Life says: She did this. Books are where things are explained to you; life is where things aren't. I'm not surprised some people prefer books."
To be a writer is to be a thief of other people's lives.
But what is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads?
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.
We live in a world where the past is always present, and the present is always haunted by the past.
"O escritor é um ser que vive à margem, observando o mundo com olhos críticos."
The only way to deal with life is to accept it as it is.
A vida é feita de escolhas, e cada escolha é uma renúncia.
"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all."
The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty; not knowing what comes next.
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.
The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can.
"Books are the windows to other lives."
"Life doesn’t have to be so planned. Just roll with it and let it happen."
"Life is tough, my darling, but so are you."
