"The Fabric of the Cosmos" - Brian Greene

How is it possible that I’m both a math grad student and obsessed with literature. What is wrong with me?! I want to do everything, learn everything, feel everything…

Smallness of humanity and the vastness of existence

Heavy textbooks, messy doodles on tables as you start overthinking your life again, discarded empty ink bottles, colored pens, messy markings on loose sheets, anatomy sketches, ink smudges on your hands, on your clothes, nervous pacing around your room as you try to memorize every part of the human body, physics formulae scribbled in walls, tables in a frenzy, dramatic scribbles of poetic epiphanies as you get lost in daydreams, dirty tea cups, bed half covered with books, making reading lists trying to romanticize what you will do after exams are over, dreams of a white coat, a perpetual haunting in your eyes, a longing for your dreams, permanent dark circles and hunched back, the blessing and curse of an academic hell

Mary Oliver, from a poem titled "Catbird," featured in Devotions: Selected Poems
