Raymond Chandler quote: "You can have a hangover from other things than alcohol. I had..."
You can have a hangover from other things than alcohol. I had one from women. Raymond Chandler
Suzanne Collins quote: "But the only thing that distracts me from my current situation..."
But the only thing that distracts me from my current situation is fantasizing about killing President Snow. Suzanne Collins
What if I’ve forgotten the most important thing? What if somewhere inside me there is a dark limbo where all the truly important memories are heaped and slowly turning into mud?...the thought fills me with an almost unbearable sorrow. Haruki Murakami
