Memory is a complicated thing, a relative to truth, but not its twin.
The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof.
"To a great mind, nothing is little."
"The little things are infinitely the most important."
"The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes."
"Memory is a tricky thing; it can be both a blessing and a curse."
"The things we do for love are often the most irrational."

The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.
"The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about."
"Memory is a tricky thing; it can be both a blessing and a curse."
The world is so unpredictable. Things happen suddenly, unexpectedly. We want to feel we are in control of our own existence.
It’s funny. The things that are most important to you are often the hardest to talk about.
