“The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.”

The sign of intelligence is that you are constantly wondering. Idiots are always dead sure about every damn thing they are doing in their life.

I’ve been taught that love is beautiful and kind, but it isn’t like that at all. It is beautiful, but it’s a terrible beauty, a ruthless one, and you fall—you fall, and the thing is you want to. You don’t care what’s coming, you just want who your heart beats for.
