deeplifequotes:

“It doesn’t matter what your parents did or didn’t do. Nobody but you is responsible for your life. You are responsible for the energy that you create for yourself.”

“Vincent Van Gogh used to eat yellow paint because he thought it would get the happiness inside him. Many people thought he was mad and stupid for doing so because the paint was toxic, never mind that it was obvious that eating paint couldn’t possible have any direct correlation to one’s happiness, but I never saw that. If you were so unhappy that even the maddest ideas could possible work, like painting the walls of your internal organs yellow, than you are going to do it. It’s really no different than falling in love or taking drugs. There is a greater risk of getting your heart broken or overdosing, but people still do it everyday because there was always that chance it could make things better. Everyone has their yellow paint.”

i wish i had my copy of kafka’s diaries with me because every entry goes something like this:

Sunday. I woke up in great pain and coughed up blood. Had coffee. Later I went to the theatre and a woman looked at me, but I could not make eye contact because I am repulsive. I am full of terror. I wish Goethe was alive because only he truly understood me.

gosh:

“Sometimes I write drunk and revise sober, and sometimes I write sober and revise drunk. But you have to have both elements in creation — the Apollonian and the Dionysian, or spontaneity and restraint, emotion and discipline.”
