1 " Society, as we have constituted it, will have no place for me, has none to offer; but Nature, whose sweet rains fall on unjust and just alike, will have clefts in the rocks where I may hide, and secret valleys in whose silence I may weep undisturbed. She will hang the night with stars so that I may walk abroad in the darkness without stumbling, and send the wind over my footprints so that none may track me to my hurt: she will cleanse me in great waters, and with bitter herbs make me whole. "
― Oscar Wilde , De Profundis
2 " Men are not puzzles that you need to figure out and understand hidden clues. They are simple creatures that are straightforward with what they want. Stop chasing after a man you're trying to understand, whose silence you're convincing yourself means more than it actually does. "
― Ella December , Mimi Memoirs
