Mi guardavo intorno e pensavo ostinatamente: nel mondo manca qualcosa. Non sapevo dirmi cosa, perché tutto quel che di nuovo poteva essere pensato e immaginato altro non era che una combinazione di elementi già esistenti nel mondo. Mancava qualcosa che fosse essenza, sostanza pura, non già combinazione. La fantasia umana non è affatto illimitata. Se lo fosse, io potrei pensare un colore inesistente nello spettro cromatico o una lettera dell'alfabeto che le mie corde vocali non possono emettere. Ma il solo avvertire la mancanza di un colore che non ebbi mai visto e di una lettera che non ebbi mai udito mi fece intendere che, da qualche altra parte, in qualche altro posto, io li avrei ritrovati. L'unica illimitatezza umana appartiene all'incapacità di accettare gli umani limiti.

Maturity is realising that other people are not mind readers, even those who love you. It’s on you to reach out, talk about how you feel, and to explain yourself. ​Everybody is busy living their own lives and is caught up in their own issues & problems, amidst all that you can’t expect them to magically be in tune with your every need and emotion. Communicate.

La cosa migliore sarebbe di non recitare nessuna parte, ma di mostrare il proprio volto, non è vero? Non c’è maggiore astuzia che di mostrare il proprio volto, perché nessuno ci crede.
Fëdor Dostoevskij

“Her heart sank into her shoes as she realized at last how much she wanted him. No matter what his past was, no matter what he had done. Which was not to say that she would ever let him know, but only that he moved her chemically more than anyone she had ever met, that all other men seemed pale beside him.”
— F. Scott Fitzgerald, A New Leaf (via goodreadss)
