Anxious People Quotes

“Încercăm să fim maturi și să ne iubim unul pe altul și să înțelegem cum naiba se conectează cablurile USB, Căutăm ceva de care să ne ținem, ceva pentru care să luptăm și ceva la care să visăm. [...] Avem în comun aceste lucruri, deși majoritatea rămânem străini unul pentru celălalt. Nu știm ce ne facem unul altuia, cum ne influențăm viețile. Astăzi am trecut, poate, grăbiți unul pe lângă celălalt și niciunul n-a observat. [...] Apoi ne-am îndepărtat. Nu știu cine ești. Dar, când ajungi seara acasă, când ziua s-a încheiat și noaptea ne ia în stăpânire, trage adânc aer în piept! Căci am făcut față încă unei zile. Iar mâine vine alta.”

“We've created lives where we can watch other people crash into the wall but still hope that somehow we're going to pass straight through it. The closer we get, more confidently we believe that some unlikely solution is miraculously going to save us, while everyone watching us is just waiting for the crash.”
