11 Quotes by Emma Abdullah

When you write something down, it stays forever.It's like a little part of you that you're giving to the universe

It's always comforting to tell yourself things are going to be alright, because even if a part of you senses that you're lying, it's comforting to shut it out- shut out reality and pretend- because pretending is nice.

Destruction makes people go away so,if you hide inside destruction,you're safe

Sometimes you have to give in to life- it's only fair.

I know it is not fair to expect love from someone who hardly knows you at all. I know that we are too young to understand and too old to understand and that perhaps nobody understands at all. I know that things happen for reasons we cannot comprehend and yet sometimes I really wish we could comprehend. I wish the world was not so dark. Sometimes it felt like somebody had turned off the lights and we were all suffocating in the darkness.

Maybe life just wants to be noticed, like a sulking toddler, so it will keep throwing things our way until we finally give it the attention it deserves.

We live in a world where some people have already lost the game before having begun.

I became like all the others: those who looked but pretended not to see or those who simply turned their heads so there would be nothing to see at all.

Maybe we all ought to feel sorry for ourselves because life is a tragedy and in the end we’re all just little pieces stitched together desperately searching for something to hang on to.
