With my hungarian lass flickering through the shallow hollows of my mind.
Your past is just a story. And once you realize this, it has no power over you.
– Chuck Palahniuk (via oktoberlyons)
To live in this world
you must be able
to do three things:
to love what is mortal;
to hold it
against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it;
and, when the time comes to let it go,
to let it go.

I want you to always remember me. Will you remember that I existed, and that I stood next to you here like this?

Every happiness is the child of a separation
It did not think it could survive.
It did not think it could survive.
– Rainer Maria Rilke (via oktoberlyons)
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes ‘Awww!’
– Jack Kerouac (via oktoberlyons)
Some moments happen in your life that you say yes right up to the roots of your hair, that make it worth having been born just to have happen. Laughing with somebody till the tears run down your cheeks. Waking up to the first snow. Being in bed with somebody you love, whether you thank God for such a moment or thank your lucky stars, it is a moment that is trying to open up your whole life. If you turn your back on such a moment and hurry along to business as usual, it may lose you the ball game. If you throw your arms around such a moment and hug it like crazy, it may save your soul.

I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can’t see from the center.

I don’t ask you to love me always like this,
But I ask you to remember.
Somewhere inside me
There’ll always be the person
I am tonight.
But I ask you to remember.
Somewhere inside me
There’ll always be the person
I am tonight.
– F. Scott Fitzgerald (Tender is the Night)
