Quote by Benjamin Alire Sáenz

“See the thing about guys is that I didn't really care to be around them. I mean, guys really made me uncomfortable. I don't know why, not exactly. I just, I don't know, I just didn't belong. I think it embarrasssed the hell out of me that I was a guy. And it really depressed me that there was the distinct possibility that I was going to grow up and be like one of the assholes.”

“Regret is the shadow of the clock's relentless march. As hours pass and the past expands, we feel the weight of missed opportunities. The future, once full of possibilities, now recedes into uncertainty, reminding us that every moment is a chance to embrace life's potential. Life's hourglass measures our journey with remorseless precision. As the past fills with memories and stories, the future narrows, offering fewer opportunities to shape our destiny. In this delicate balance, we confront the increasing weight of unfulfilled possibilities and the growing inventory of regrets. Each tick of the clock is a reminder of our limited time on this earth. The past, a repository of memories, expands ceaselessly. Simultaneously, the future diminishes, and our once boundless possibilities seem to slip through our grasp, replaced by the weight of accumulating regrets.”

“Science, philosophy, & spirituality's dance, Distinct storytelling, yet similar stance. From the observable to the realms unseen, Deciphering patterns, both real & dreamed. In the quest for meaning, answers sought, In life's intricate web, they're all caught.”

“Yes the realities of life so cold, So cowardly, so ready to betray, So stinted in the measure of their grace As we pronounce them, doing them much wrong, Have been to me more bountiful than hope, Less timid than desire—but that is passed.”
