    “Some catastrophic moments invite clarity, explode in split moments: You smash your hand through a windowpane and then there is blood and shattered glass stained with red all over the place; you fall out a window and break some bones and scrape some skin. Stitches and casts and bandages and antiseptic solve and salve the wounds. But depression is not a sudden disaster. It is more like a cancer: At first its tumorous mass is not even noticeable to the careful eye, and then one day -- wham! -- there is a huge, deadly seven-pound lump lodged in your brain or your stomach or your shoulder blade, and this thing that your own body has produced is actually trying to kill you. Depression is a lot like that: Slowly, over the years, the data will accumulate in your heart and mind, a computer program for total negativity will build into your system, making life feel more and more unbearable. But you won't even notice it coming on, thinking that it is somehow normal, something about getting older, about turning eight or turning twelve or turning fifteen, and then one day you realize that your entire life is just awful, not worth living, a horror and a black blot on the white terrain of human existence. One morning you wake up afraid you are going to live.

    In my case, I was not frightened in the least bit at the thought that I might live because I was certain, quite certain, that I was already dead. The actual dying part, the withering away of my physical body, was a mere formality. My spirit, my emotional being, whatever you want to call all that inner turmoil that has nothing to do with physical existence, were long gone, dead and gone, and only a mass of the most fucking god-awful excruciating pain like a pair of boiling hot tongs clamped tight around my spine and pressing on all my nerves was left in its wake.

    That's the thing I want to make clear about depression: It's got nothing at all to do with life. In the course of life, there is sadness and pain and sorrow, all of which, in their right time and season, are normal -- unpleasant, but normal. Depression is an altogether different zone because it involves a complete absence: absence of affect, absence of feeling, absence of response, absence of interest. The pain you feel in the course of a major clinical depression is an attempt on nature's part (nature, after all, abhors a vacuum) to fill up the empty space. But for all intents and purposes, the deeply depressed are just the walking, waking dead.

    And the scariest part is that if you ask anyone in the throes of depression how he got there, to pin down the turning point, he'll never know. There is a classic moment in The Sun Also Rises when someone asks Mike Campbell how he went bankrupt, and all he can say in response is, 'Gradually and then suddenly.' When someone asks how I love my mind, that is all I can say too”
    Elizabeth Wurtzel, Prozac Nation

    Gabriel Garc铆a M谩rquez
    “To him she seemed so beautiful, so seductive, so different from ordinary people, that he could not understand why no one was as disturbed as he by the clicking of her heels on the paving stones, why no one else's heart was wild with the breeze stirred by the sighs of her veils, why everyone did not go mad with the movements of her braid, the flight of her hands, the gold of her laughter. He had not missed a single one of her gestures, not one of the indications of her character, but he did not dare approach her for fear of destroying the spell.”
    Gabriel Garc铆a M谩rquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

    “Tisiphone stood silent and helpless in Alicia's mind. It was all she could do to keep Alicia's blind savagery from dragging Megaira under and clouding the lightning-fast reflexes which kept them both alive.
    She'd never guessed what she was creating, never imagined the monster she'd spawned. She'd seen the power of Alicia DeVries's mind without recognizing the controls which kept that power in check, and only now had she begun to understand fully what she had done.
    She had shattered those controls. The compassion and mercy she'd feared no longer existed, only the red, ravening hunger. Yet terrible as that might be, there was worse. She'd found the hole Alicia had gnawed through the wall about her inner rage, and she couldn't close it. Somehow, without even realizing it was possible, Alicia had reached beyond herself. She'd followed Tisiphone's connection to the Fury's own rage, her own destruction, and made that incalculable power hers as well.
    For the first time in millennia, Tisiphone faced another as powerful as herself, a mortal mind which had stolen the power of the Furies themselves, and that power had driven it mad.”
    David Weber, In Fury Born (1)

    “It鈥檚 just that you came right after he left.It鈥檚 just that your words were warm and comforting.And it felt like the safest hideout,holding up the door behind my pain.It鈥檚 just that your jokes sounded alike.So much that I could hear his laughter when you cracked them.It鈥檚 just that you loved iced coffee and rain.It鈥檚 just that you parted your hair to the right and preferred window seats.
    It鈥檚 just that it鈥檚 always been him.It鈥檚 just that he is still crying inside me.Wanting to be remembered.For a really long time.It鈥檚 just that I don鈥檛 love you,but his impressions that you carry.
    || I鈥檓 so sorry that I am not ready to love you.”
    Athira Krishnakumar

    Coco J. Ginger
    “Her heart had grown so familiar to the pain of life without him, that to respond now seemed too large a pleasure she could not endure. If pain was love, then she loved fiercely. Yet knew she could not be near that boy again.”
    Jamie Weise

    John Green
    “I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was hurricane.”
    John Green, Looking for Alaska

    Carol Rifka Brunt
    “Maybe I was destined to forever fall in love with people I couldn鈥檛 have. Maybe there鈥檚 a whole assortment of impossible people waiting for me to find them. Waiting to make me feel the same impossibility over and over again.”
    Carol Rifka Brunt, Tell the Wolves I'm Home

    Patrick Rothfuss
    “I thought of all the others who had tried to tie her to the ground and failed. So I resisted showing her the songs and poems I had written, knowing that too much truth can ruin a thing. And if that meant she wasn't entirely mine, what of it? I would be the one she could always return to without fear of recrimination or question. So I did not try to win her and contented myself with playing a beautiful game. But there was always a part of me that hoped for more, and so there was a part of me that was always a fool.”
    Patrick Rothfuss, The Wise Man's Fear

    “A person doesn't know true hurt and suffering until they've felt the pain of falling in love with someone whose affections lie elsewhere.”
    Rose Gordon, Her Imperfect Groom

    Criss Jami
    “Love is as simple as the absence of self given to another. God, when invited, fills the void of any unrequited love; hence loving is how one is drawn closer to God no matter its most horrific repercussions.”
    Criss Jami, Venus in Arms

    Virginia Woolf
    “To want and not to have, sent all up her body a hardness, a hollowness, a strain. And then to want and not to have- to want and want- how that wrung the heart, and wrung it again and again!”
    Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse

    Percy Bysshe Shelley
    “We look before and after,
    And pine for what is not;
    Our sincerest laughter
    With some pain is fraught;
    Our sweetest songs are those that tell
    Of saddest thought.”
    Percy Bysshe Shelley, The Complete Poems

    Ian McEwan
    “There's a taste in the air, sweet and vaguely antiseptic, that reminds him of his teenage years in these streets, and of a general state of longing, a hunger for life to begin that from this distance seems like happiness.”
    Ian McEwan, Saturday

    Amit Abraham
    “My life is like an autumn leaf
    I lie around unclaimed.
    The breeze blows me around,
    To be trampled under the feet of men.
    Natures cruel feast has bestowed me with pain,
    Pain of being a part,
    Just a part of someone.
    Pain of departing,
    Departing from that one.
    Pick me up like a rose,
    And hold me to your heart.
    Keep me there till he does not come.
    And when he comes do a good deed,
    Dig the earth below,
    And bury me deep
    For I don't want to lie around,
    Unclaimed, unloved.”
    Dr. Amit Abraham

    Roger Zelazny
    “I watched the spinning stars, grateful, sad and proud, as only a man who has outlived his destiny and realizes he might yet forge himself another, can be.”
    Roger Zelazny, Isle of the Dead

    Donna Tartt
    “I missed her so much I wanted to die: a hard, physical longing, like a craving for air underwater. Lying awake, I tried to recall all my best memories of her鈥攖o freeze her in my mind so I wouldn鈥檛 forget her鈥攂ut instead of birthdays and happy times I kept remembering things like how a few days before she was killed she鈥檇 stopped me halfway out the door to pick a thread off my school jacket. For some reason, it was one of the clearest memories I had of her: her knitted eyebrows, the precise gesture of her reaching out to me, everything. Several times too鈥攄rifting uneasily between dreaming and sleep鈥擨 sat up suddenly in bed at the sound of her voice speaking clearly in my head, remarks she might conceivably have made at some point but that I didn鈥檛 actually remember, things like Throw me an apple, would you? and I wonder if this buttons up the front or the back? and This sofa is in a terrible state of disreputableness.”
    Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

    Erik Pevernagie
    “The loss of an eager and unrestrained longing for someone or the lack of an unyielding desire of momentous incidents in life may blur the peculiar aura and the soothing tint of contingent encounters. ( 鈥淭wilight of desire 鈥 )”
    Erik Pevernagie

  • #25
    Alain de Botton
    “While a common reaction to seeing a thing of beauty is to want to buy it, our real desire may be not so much to own what we find beautiful as to lay permanent claim to the inner qualities it embodies.

    Owning such an object may help us realise our ambition of absorbing the virtues to which it alludes, but we ought not to presume that those virtues will automatically or effortlessly begin to rub off on us through tenure. Endeavouring to purchase something we think beautiful may in fact be the most unimaginative way of dealing with the longing it excites in us, just as trying to sleep with someone may be the bluntest response to a feeling of love.

    What we seek, at the deepest level, is inwardly to resemble, rather than physically possess, the objects and places that touch us through their beauty.”
    Alain de Botton, The Architecture of Happiness

    Jane Seville
    “And how do you really feel?
    Like I'll never recover. Like I'll never draw another breath without half of it being a wish for him.”
    Jane Seville, Zero at the Bone

    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
    The Day is Done

    The day is done, and the darkness
    Falls from the wings of Night,
    As a feather is wafted downward
    From an eagle in his flight.

    I see the lights of the village
    Gleam through the rain and the mist,
    And a feeling of sadness comes o'er me
    That my soul cannot resist:

    A feeling of sadness and longing,
    That is not akin to pain,
    And resembles sorrow only
    As the mist resembles the rain.

    Come, read to me some poem,
    Some simple and heartfelt lay,
    That shall soothe this restless feeling,
    And banish the thoughts of day.

    Not from the grand old masters,
    Not from the bards sublime,
    Whose distant footsteps echo
    Through the corridors of Time.

    For, like strains of martial music,
    Their mighty thoughts suggest
    Life's endless toil and endeavor;
    And to-night I long for rest.

    Read from some humbler poet,
    Whose songs gushed from his heart,
    As showers from the clouds of summer,
    Or tears from the eyelids start;

    Who, through long days of labor,
    And nights devoid of ease,
    Still heard in his soul the music
    Of wonderful melodies.

    Such songs have power to quiet
    The restless pulse of care,
    And come like the benediction
    That follows after prayer.

    Then read from the treasured volume
    The poem of thy choice,
    And lend to the rhyme of the poet
    The beauty of thy voice.

    And the night shall be filled with music,
    And the cares, that infest the day,
    Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs,
    And as silently steal away.”
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, The Belfry of Bruges and Other Poems

    Tessa Afshar
    “We long for things that harm us and run from the things that grow and heal us. We think good is bad and bad is good.”
    Tessa Afshar, Pearl in the Sand

    Christina Rossetti
    “Fair as the moon and joyful as the light;
    Tot wan with waiting, not with sorrow dim; Not as she is, but was when hope shone bright;
    Not as she is, but as she fills his dreams.”
    Christina Rossetti
