“i don't want to be the only good thing in the world.”
“I wanted the world to sit back, listen up, and let me explain to it that when someone is sad and hopeless, the last thing they need to feel is that they are the only ones in the world with that feeling. So, if you feel sorry for someone, don't pretend to be happy. Don't pretend to care only about their problems.”
“Don't worry about your studies. When you want to do them well you will do them superbly. But for the moment the main thing is to get what little happiness there is in this wartorn world because "these are only good old days" now.”
“We were all brought up to want things and maybe the world isn't big enough for all that wanting. I don't know. I don't know anything”
“Suddenly, I don't want to be this person anymore. I don't want to pretend I'm fooling the world when I'm not. I want someone else to have a plan for me, because I'm not doing a very good job myself.”
“That is very good. People always want to be in a hurry. They want to control everything around them. Even the weather. They say, "What is the weather today?" The only thing they don't control is themselves, when that is the one thing they can control.”
