Normality

Normality is a paved road; it's comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow. - Vincent van Gogh

Snow

Think of your mind as a hill covered in snow, and your thoughts are sleds going down that hill. And after a while, after a lot of thoughts have gone down that hill, there will be these grooves, and they get deeper and deeper. At a certain point you can't go down that hill without slipping into these grooves. - Michael Pollan quoting a Dutch scientist

I am

I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; I am who I think you think I am. - Charles Cooley

Struggle

"The struggle itself towards the heights is enough to fill a man's heart." Albert Camus

Parasites

The hardest part of being immortal is growing tired of people around you dying. It's the same self-portrayed importance over and over. Each generation thinking they are wiser. That they can change the world and undo all the mistakes of the past. When they perish they only serve to solidify the truth of the species. They are not a higher life form; simply an organic parasite consuming it's home world. - pinaero

Searching

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. - William Chapman
