„Eine Wunde, die man zeigt, kann geheilt werden“.
— Joseph Beuys

"I don't know a perfect Person. I only know flawed People who are still worth loving." - John Green

"I do not say 'good-bye'. I believe that's one of the bullshittiest words ever invented. It's not like you're given the choice to say 'bad-bye' or 'awful-bye' or 'couldn't-care-less-about-you-bye'. every time you leave it's supposed to be a good one. well, i don't believe in that. i believe against that." [S.23]

"Being goodlooking opens doors, no matter who you are. They say it's what's on the inside that Counts. But, it's Kind of hard to Count whenn nobody can see your insides." - Matthew Gray Gubler

And, for example, some People say how can an eye happen by accident? Because an eye has to evolve from something else very like an eye and it doesn't just happen because of a genetic mistake, and what is the use of half an eye? But half an eye is very useful because half an eye means that an animal can see half of an animal that wants to eta it and get out of the way, and it will eat the animal that only has a third of an eye or 49% of an eye insteat because it hasn't got out of the way quick enough, and the animal that is eaten won't have babies because it is dead.
And People who believe in God think God has put human beings on the earth because they thin human beings are the best anima, but human beings are ust an animal and they will evolve into another animal, and that animal will be cleverer and it will put human beings in a zoo, like we put chimpanzees and Gorillas into a zoo. Or human beings will all catch a disease and die out or they will make too much Pollution and kill themselves, and then there will only be insects in the world and they will be the best animal.

The Curious Incident Of The Dog in the Night-Time, Mark Haddon, S. 204

'I think prime numbers are like life. They are very Logical but you could never work out the rules, even if you spent all your time thinking about them.' [S.15]

The Curious Incident of the dog in the night time - Mark Haddon

"I'm learning that the real world is full of land mines. I've set a few of them off. It's full of mistakes, and of Actions and words you can't take back. But I'm also learning that mistakes may open more doors than they close."

'Die Rebellion der Maddie Freeman - 2', bzw. 'Middle Ground' [weil ich's ja auf Englisch lese] von Katie Kacvinsky

Warum kann ich nicht in jemanden verliebt sein, der mich zurückliebt? Warum kann mein Leben nicht entspannt und glücklich sein? Ich will nicht, dass ich mich rund um die Uhr nach ihm sehne! Und jetzt, wo er verschwunden ist, ist dieser Rund-um-die-Uhr-Schmerz, der mir auf die Brust drückt, sogar noch stärker geworden. So stark, dass mein ganzer Körper wehtut. Als wäre er vergiftet.

("Breathe" - Sarah Crossan, S. 170)

"Seine Gefühle zu verschleiern, sein Gesicht zu beherrschen, zu tun, was jeder tat, gebot schon der Instinkt."
(aus 1984 von George Orwell, Seite 16)

Er fehlt mir so sehr, dass ich dieses Gefühl vermissen würde, wenn es nicht mehr da wäre. Ich würde mich umdrehen und voller Überraschung feststellen, dass ich wirklich ganz alleine bin, wohingegen ich vorher wenigstens etwas hatte - wenn auch nicht ihn.

(aus Cassia & Ky - 2 von Ally Condie)
