“It was a seductive thing, full of promise. Full of warmth and wonder and lies.”
“Beginnings are pitiless things; they are full of promise and hope that they never have to realise.”
“This world is full of broken things: broken hearts, broken promises, broken people,”
“Accursed, blasted, heartless things [books]! Full of empty promises, full of false lures, always making you hungry, never satisfying you, never!”
“A man is a very small thing, and the night is very large and full of wonders.”
“Full of promise, full of dreams, full of shit. Mostly just full of yourself. So full you’re bursting. And then you get out into the world, and people empty you out, little by little, like air from a balloon.”
