“Sometimes, I have to look twice at you just to see if you’re actually real. That much beauty is dangerous.”

“The world is so beautiful, when you look at it.So detailed. So sharp. Everything’s just there--so much more than we need. Light we can’t see, sounds we can’t hear. Sometimes I wonder if that’s what it takes to make it real.”

“And you look beautiful without it, but I want you to feel just as beautiful as I see you.”

“The only real danger is flinching, seeming to notice your own nakedness. If you don’t flinch, you’re merely nude, which is a classically recognized form of beauty.”

“But sometimes even the sky is dangerous. I look up and see your face in the stars.”

“I will tell you something that you don’t want to hear: Autumn is ugly! Look at the dying leaves! There is no beauty in dying! Death is always ugly! The beauty of autumn is just an illusion, my friend! Wake up and see the real truth! See the crying leaves!”
