"She let him finish, scratching his head..." - Quote by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

“And both of them remained floating in an empty universe where the only everyday & eternal reality was love.”

“All my life, I've been frightened at the moment I sit down to write.”

“and the two of them loved each other for a long time in silence without making love again.”

“My dear, In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm. I realized, through it all, that… In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back. Truly yours, Albert Camus”

“Sports have the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sports can create hope, where there was once only despair. It is more powerful than governments in breaking down racial barriers. It laughs in the face of all types of discrimination. Sports is the game of lovers.”

“Together they had overcome the daily incomprehension, the instantaneous hatred, the reciprocal nastiness, and fabulous flashes of glory in the conjugal conspiracy. It was time when they both loved each other best, without hurry or excess, when both were most conscious of and grateful for their incredible victories over adversity. Life would still present them with other moral trials, of course, but that no longer mattered: they were on the other shore.”

“Music is at its best when it is pleasingly melancholic.”

“It won't take long before I explode with pent-up rage.”

“Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.”
