“Want something to chase you? Run.”
“Never finish a war without starting another.”
“If you were walking away, keep walking.”
“Why do anything at all? Not how, because hows are easy—series or sequence, one foot after the other—but existentially why bother, what does it solve?”

“The fear: that nothing survives. The greater fear: that something does.”

“He is inside his body and I am inside my body and it matters less and less.”
“How much can you change and get away with it, before you turn into someone else, before it’s some kind of murder?”

“Feels like I’ve always been here.”
“People don’t learn anything unless they are afraid of being left behind.”
“Being unreasonable is exciting.”
“You have to understand it as it is.”
“This is also part of the story: how the story changes. This is something I forgot to tell you.”
“I think that you might like it here.”
“I tell you these things because I love you.”

“None of it is real, darling.”

“You are what you cover up.”
“I want to give you more but not everything. You don’t need everything.”
