I didn't know why something that started off feeling so good had to wind up feeling so bad. Love was a big word and it covered a lot of territory. You could spend your whole life chasing after it and wind up with nothing, be an old bitter guy with long nose hair and ear hair and no teeth, hanging out in bars, looking for somebody your age, but the chances of success went down then.

So I made up my mind I was going to find someone who would love me unconditionally three hundred and sixty-five days a year. Watanabe: Wow, and did your search pay off? M: That's the hard part. I guess I've been waiting so long I'm looking for perfection. That makes it tough. Haruki Murakami
All this time I was wasting, Hoping you would come around. I've been givin' out chances every time. And all you do is let me down. And it's taken me this long baby. But I figured you out. And you think it would be fine again. But not this time around Taylor Swift

Never give up, never despair, let no mystery confound you into the conclusion that mystery cannot be yours. Mark Helprin
As a writer, even as a child, long before what I wrote began to be published, I developed a sense that meaning itself was resident in the rhythms of words and sentences and paragraphs...The way I write is who I am, or have become... Joan Didion
