    Vrijeme prolazi tako brzo", pojasnio je, "a tvoji strahovi uvijek će biti dobra izlika da ne učiniš ono što želiš. Ne sumnjaj u sebe, ne dopusti da te strah sputava, nemoj biti lijena i nemoj temeljiti vlastite odluke na drugima i njihovoj sreći. Idi za onime za čime žudiš, u redu?

    We want a house, a car, a fancy f*cking vacation, and prestige. So what do we do? We go to school and we get jobs we hate to pay for the things we want. We deal with people we don't like and waste years of our lives sitting in stark fluorescent-lit rooms and listening to coworkers who bore us so we can pay for a small amount of precious time to enjoy what makes us happy, to achieve a fraction of our lives just feeling as if it was all worth it. We sacrifice to earn.

    Longing, because I miss her. I miss talking to her as me. Lust greater than I've ever known, because we're like this, it's the only time she softens and changes and gives me an inch, and it's a need that's in my head just as much as my body. It keeps me on my toes.
