“One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one’s own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought.” — Albert Einstein

“If you want to succeed in your life, remember this phrase: The past does not equal the future. Because you failed yesterday; or all day today; or a moment ago; or for the last six months; the last sixteen years; or the last fifty years of life, doesn’t mean anything… All that matters is: What are you going to do, right now?” 

— Anthony Robbins

“As I write down my thought it sometimes escapes me, but that reminds me of my weakness, which I am always forgetting, and teaches me as much as my forgotten thought, for I care only about knowing that I am nothing.” — Blaise Pascal

Calling Summer (by *Sakura*)

“Have you ever had so much to say that your mouth closed up tight struggling to harness the nuclear force coalescing within your words?

Have you ever had so many thoughts churning inside you that you didn’t dare let them escape in case they blew you wide open?

Have you ever been so angry that you couldn’t look in the mirror for fear of finding the face of evil glaring back at you?” — Ellen Hopkins

“My thoughts took frantic flight, wanting to escape this prison, and seek out the wind so it could fan my hair and sting my skin, and make me feel alive again.” — V.C. Andrews

From The Feather Room, by Anis Mojgani

“The fog was where I wanted to be. Halfway down the path you can’t see this house. You’d never know it was here. Or any of the other places down the avenue. I couldn’t see but a few feet ahead. I didn’t meet a soul. Everything looked and sounded unreal. Nothing was what it is. That’s what I wanted—to be alone with myself in another world where truth is untrue and life can hide from itself..” — Eugene O’Neill

Crystal Reading (by *Sakura*)

“Some of my old memories feel trapped in amber in my brain, lucid and burning, while others are like the wing beat of a hummingbird, an intangible, ephemeral blur.” — Mira Bartok
