“Meet me there, where the sea meets the sky...” ~Oksana Rus

“I wish 

I could show you 

the little village 

where I 

was born. 

It's so lovely 

there...

I used to think it too 

small 

to spend a life in, 

but now 

 I'm not

so 

sure.” 

 ~Mary Kelly

“No matter what they tell you, you are an animal in the forest” ~Bangambiki Habyarimana

“Dogs 

are our link

 to paradise. 

They don't know evil 

or jealousy 

or discontent. 

To sit with a 

dog 

on a hillside 

on a glorious afternoon 

is to be back 

in Eden, 

where doing 

nothing 

was not boring--

it was 

peace.”

 ~Milan Kundera

“I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow.” ~Edgar Allan Poe

“The day 

and time

 itself: 

late afternoon 

in early 

February, 

was there a moment of the year 

better suited 

for 

despair?” 

~Alice McDermott

“Clouds suit my mood just fine.” ~Marie Lu

 “Because 

when you are 

imagining, 

you might as well 

imagine 

something 

worth while.”

“It is the still, yellow kind of afternoon when one is apt to get stuck in a dream if one sits very quiet” ~Dodie Smith

 “Just take my hand, 

lead, 

dance with 

me...

and I will simply 

follow 

the blueness 

of the 

water, 

the white waves 

rolling 

free...

where the earth 

 beneath my 

feet 

and stars 

make my heart 

whole again...

in long 

and priceless moments 

of shared 

solitude”
