“Do you love me enough that I may be weak with you? Everyone loves strength, but do you love me for my weakness? That is the real test.”
—Alain de Botton (via anditslove)
“More and more I find myself at a loss for words and didn’t want to hear other people talking either. Their conversations seemed false and empty. I preferred to look at the sea, which said nothing and never made you feel alone.”
—― Paula McLain, The Paris Wife
“I miss good old-fashioned honorable people just trying to make something of life. Simply, without hurting anyone else. I know that makes me a sap.”
—― Paula McLain, The Paris Wife

“She looks sad. She looks angry. She looks different from everyone else I know—she cannot put on that happy face others wear when they know they are being watched. She doesn’t put on a face for me, which makes me trust her somehow.”
—― Matthew Quick, The Silver Linings Playbook
“I have far more enthusiasm in life than I have actual energy. In my excitement, I routinely take on more that I can physically or emotionally handle, which causes me to break down in quite predictable displays of dramatic exhaustion. You will be the one burdened with the job of mopping me up every time I’ve overextended myself and then fallen apart. This will be unbelievably tedious. I apologize in advance.”

“How can you trust your feelings, when they can just disappear like that?”
—Blue Valentine (2010)
“I wish I had the courage not to fight and doubt everything… I wish, just once, I could say, ‘This. This is good enough.’”

“I hid my deepest feelings so well I forgot where I placed them.”

“Whenever anyone has called me a bitch, I have taken it as a compliment. To me, a bitch is assertive, unapologetic, demanding, intimidating, intelligent, fiercely protective, in control—all very positive attributes. But it’s not supposed to be a compliment, because there’s that old, stupid double standard: When men are aggressive and dominant, they are admired, but when a woman possesses those same qualities, she is dismissed and called a bitch.”

It is possible that everything fell together and made sense. Yesterday was one of those days.
you must understand why you felt what you did and why you no longer need to feel it
记得 懂得 舍得
“My mom told me once that when you’re afraid of something, what you want more than anything else is to make it go away. You want your life back to the way it was before you found out that there was something to be afraid of. You want to build a high wall and live your old life behind it. But nothing ever stays the same. That’s not your old life at all. That’s your new life with a wall around it. Your choice is not about going back to the way things were. Your choice is about hiding, or about going right to the heart of the thing that scares you.”

“Then he made one last effort to search in his heart for the place where his affection had rotted away, and he could not find it”
A Novel About Creation
“Practically everything slept in an infinite torpor of potentiality. I knew that I could make whatever i wanted. But that was the problem. Unlimited possibilities bring unlimited indecision. When I thought about this particular creation or that, uncertain about how each thing would turn out, I grew anxious and went back to sleep. But at a particular moment, I managed.. If not exactly to sweep aside my doubts, at least to take a chance”
