"You know, sometimes I feel like I was born with a leak, and any goodness I started with just slowly spilled out of me, and now it's all gone. And I'll never get it back in me. It's too late. Life is a series of closing doors, isn't it?"
-BoJack Horseman

[Conflicted Cat]

No one is around to help.
Life is hard, Life is stressful.
I need Peace and Tranquillity.
I don't have to prove myself to anyone.

 

[Kuolema]

On the day I die, when I'm being carried toward the grave, don't weep. Don't say, He's gone! He's gone. Death has nothing to do with going away. The sun sets and the moon sets, but they're not gone. Death is a coming together. The tomb looks like a prison, but it's really release into union. The human seed goes down in the ground like a bucket into the well where Joseph is. It grows and comes up full of some unimagined beauty. Your mouth closes here and immediately opens with a shout of joy there.

- Rumi

I had a biology teacher once who could literally bore people to death... His voice was so monotonous and he would go on and on and on. People would literally skip his class to avoid having to listen to him.

Well, yeah. Better safe than sorry, right? You don't want to die, thinking there is no after life and then suddenly, you are like "OH SHIT. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS AND WHO IS THIS ASSHOLE!" And then you'll become confused, panic etc... Nothing beneficial for you. Always prepare your mind for everything because anything is possible. Make sure you have a plan A, a plan B, a plan C, a plan D, a plan E etc... Shit, if I die and end up face to face with H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu, I will be mentally prepared. Same thing, if I see something like this.

"It's everybody, I mean. Everything everybody does is so — I don't know — not wrong, or even mean, or even stupid necessarily. But just so tiny and meaningless and — sad-making. And the worst part is, if you go bohemian or something crazy like that, you're conforming just as much only in a different way."Salinger, Franny and Zooey

I can see how it might be possible for a man to look down upon the earth and be an atheist, but I cannot conceive how a man could look up into the heavens and say there is no God.

Just came across this today:

"The living who are in such a hurry, the living who have grown accustomed to war as to a hectic way of life, the living who cannot believe they will have to die themselves, they do not think of you anymore. It is as if death has not only ended your life, but annihilated it as well. For a little while you will continue to exist as a number on the quartermasters' list, a pathetic subject for a memorial speech; but you, human, you do not exist and it is as if you never have existed. What lies there below us [in that gorge] is carbon and hydrogen sulphide, covered in tatters of uniform, and we call it: dead. "

Diary of an Italian soldier, Alpine front, September 1916.

Kelsey, in this terrifying world, all we have are the connections that we make. I'm sorry I got you fired, I'm sorry I never called you after.

I don't know how to be, Diane. It doesn't get better and it doesn't get easier. I can't keep lying to myself thinking I'm gonna change, I'm poison. I come from poison. I have poison inside me and I destroy everything I touch. That's my legacy. I have nothing to show for the live I have lived. And I have nobody in my life who's better off for having known me.

I know you wanna be happy, but you won't be, and... I'm sorry. It's not just you, you know. Your father and I, we, well... You come by it, honestly, the ugliness inside you. You were born broken. That's your birthright. And now you can fill your life with projects--your books, and your girlfriends, and your little movies--but that won't make you whole. You're BoJack Horseman. There's no cure for that.

They see a greatness in me and mistake it for goodness, but I know that there's nothing there.

He filled the air with words, terrified of silence, as one often is who is smart enough to recognize his many personal failings but unwilling or unable to take the steps required to fix them.

"Be careful, you are not in Wonderland. I've heard the strange madness long growing in your soul. But you are fortunate in your ignorance, in your isolation. You who have suffered, find where love hides. Give, share, lose—lest we die, unbloomed."

"Living matter evades the decay to equilibrium"

[RM5998]

That even though your parents aren't what you need them to be, over and over and *over* again, at any moment they might surprise you with something... wonderful. I kept waiting for that, the proof, that even though my mother was a hard woman, deep down she loved me and cared about me and wanted me to know that I made her life a little bit brighter. Even now, I find myself waiting.
