Don't you think it's better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?
It’s dark now and I am very tired. I love you, always. Time is nothing.
It's hard being left behind. (...) It's hard to be the one who stays.
Right now we are here, and nothing can mar our perfection, or steal the joy of this perfect moment.
I won't ever leave you, even though you're always leaving me.
Why is love intensified by absence?
one of the best and the most painful things about time traveling has been the opportunity to see my mother alive.
Now I wonder if it means that the future is a place, or like a place, that I could go to; that is go to in some way otherthan just getting older.
I go to sleep alone, and wake up alone. I take walks. I work until I'm tired. I watch the wind play with the trash that's been under the snow all winter. Everything seems simple until you think about it. Why is love intensified by abscence?
Chaos is more freedom; in fact, total freedom. But no meaning. I want to be free to act, and I also want my actions to mean something.

I sit quietly and think about my mom. It's funny how memory erodes, If all I had to work from were my childhood memories, my knowledge of my mother would be faded and soft, with a few sharp memories standing out.
To world enough and time.
I am suddenly comsumed by nostalgia for the little girl who was me, who loved the fields and believed in God, who spent winter days home sick from school reading Nancy Drew and sucking menthol cough drops, who could keep a secret.
When I am out there, in time, I am inverted, changed into a desperate version of myself. I become a thief, a vagrant, an animal who runs and hides. I startle old women and amaze children. I am a trick, an illusion of the highest order, so incredible that I am actually true.
I think about my mother singing after lunch on a Summer afternoon, twirling in blue dress across the floor of her dressing room
We are often insane with happiness. We are also very unhappy for reasons neither of us can do anything about. Like being separated.
There are several ways to react to being lost. One is to panic: this was usually Valentina's first impulse. Another is to abandon yourself to lostness, to allow the fact that you've misplaced yourself to change the way you experience the world.
I never wanted to have anything in my life that I couldn't stand losing. But it's too late for that.

Motivation is a byproduct of action, not the catalyst for it.
Control your thoughts or your thoughts will control you.
Today is a new day. Stop living in the past.
Focus on the step in front of you, not the whole staircase.
You attract what you are, not what you want. If you want great, then be great.
Your goals should scare you a little and excite you a lot.
