Don't question why your feeling ready for something new, question why you stayed the same for so long.”

Humans have always had a hard time digesting foreign things.”

“One could argue that it's romantic to die for love. Of course, then you're dead and unable to take that honeymoon trip to the Alps with all the other fashionable young couples, which is a shame.”
