Obviously their whole story is that they are their own person, everyone with his own personality, etc, etc but the idea that they somehow end up all having somewhat the same type makes me giggle.

Just imagine in a everyone-lives-au, they have some sort of reunion to see how everyone is doing (think high school reunion) and all these similar looking men end up bringing partners that all seem similar in some way too, maybe not entirely in appearance but all having brown hair or eyes or something like that.

“Yes, my strenght is in solitude. I hold no fear of tempestuous rains nor of great wind storms, for I too am the darkness of night.”

“Saudade is a little like hunger. It's only gone when you eat one's presence. But sometimes the saudade is so deep that the presence is not enough: you want to absorb the other person whole. This want of one being another for a unification in its entirety is one of the most urgent feelings in life.”

“It's curious how I cannot say who I am. I mean, I know it well, but I cannot say it. Above all I'm afraid of saying it, because in the moment in which I try to speak not only do I express what I feel but what I feel slowly turns into what I say.”

“May my solitude serve as company. May I have the courage to face myself. May I be able to be with nothing and still feel like I have everything.”

“I don't even understand what I understand: for I am infinitely bigger than myself, and I can't reach me.”

“I'm a daughter of nature: I want to take, to feel, to touch, to be. And all of this is already part of a whole, of a mystery. I am one. [...] I am a being. And I let you be. Does that scare you? I believe so. But it is worth it, even if it hurts. It only hurts in the beginning.”
