You are a secret world
A bad day is one that ends with words inside that you couldn’t get out.
Only believe someone’s art if it’s accidental; spontaneity reveals our true dispositions.
Wanderlust leads to exploring the world, being lost in wonder leads to exploring the mind.
Show me what is good about me and I will be your friend until death; show me what my faults are and I will be your friend forever.
It is quite sad that we don’t understand one another, but the ultimate disappointment would be if we were all the same. Thus, though the distance between us brings melancholy, none of us would have it any other way. To be different is to be at all.
And he found it sad to discover that the only meaningful way to get to know someone is if they never attempt to explain themself directly.
I always wake up hoping that whoever I was yesterday took care of everything I needed to do.
We find proof for that of which we are suspicious.
Similarities make for boring friendships.
Sometimes I write something because I believe it, other times I believe something because I wrote it.

Hooray un-sameness! o/ Though it is always pretty cool when you make some obscure reference and someone else gets it. It’s like a mental treasure hunt.

Love it.
And most of the time, the secret world can’t be explained at all.
I sometimes think its more of a feeling, the kind you get when you’re close to someone, but you feel each other’s silence and it feels pleasant.
Fantastic quotes!
“And he found it sad to discover that the only meaningful way to get to know someone is if they never attempt to explain themself directly.”
In regards to this, I hate it when people ask me,”Whats your life story?” as if I, after editing, guarding myself, and being annoyed, would tell them the truth.
