"I could not believe in a God that would challenge faith like this."
"I could not believe in a God that would challenge faith like this."
"I don't think that there are any limits to how excellent we could make life seem."
"If there is no love in the world, we will make a new world, and we will give it walls, and we will furnish it with soft, red interiors, from the inside out, and give it a knocker that resonates like a diamond falling to a jeweller's felt so that we should never hear it. Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does."
"It's true, I am afraid of dying. I am afraid of the world moving forward without me, of my absence going unnoticed, or worse, being some natural force propelling life on. Is it selfish? Am I such a bad person for dreaming of a world that ends when I do? I don't mean the world ending with respect to me, but every set of eyes closing with mine."
"...and when is enough proof enough?"
"I imagine a line, a white line, painted on the sand and on the ocean, from me to you."
