“And every day I thank [God] that I am alive, not because I fear death, but because my wife has a husband and my son is not an orphan.”

A man’s heart is a wretched, wretched thing. It isn’t like a mother’s womb. It won’t bleed. It won’t stretch to make room for you.

Quiet is peace. Tranquility. Quiet is turning down the volume knob on life. Silence is pushing the off button. Shutting it down. All of it.

Everyone is an ocean inside. Every individual walking the street. Everyone is a universe of thoughts, and insights, and feelings. But every person is crippled in his or her own way by our inability to truly present ourselves to the world.

A sudden happiness catches me unawares. I feel it trickling into me, and my eyes go liquid with gratitude and hope.

He sets fire to my soul and I have never felt so alive.

There’s a fine line between sanity and madness in being alive.

I step out, into the pouring rain. What am I if not alive?
