“Sorrow? So that was it then? All I knew about this emotion was how it used to turn life into nightmare eons ago, just like a thorn could steal away a rose’s beauty.” Ya Fantasy SeriesDebut NovelHigh FantasyDebut AuthorParallelismYa Novels Book:Guardian of the Auras Source: Guardian of the Auras
“[Scott] heard the clock on the living room mantel strike midnight, and he could no longer lie there suffering. He slipped from his bed, dressed, and so quietly that he might not even have existed--and wouldn't that have been the best, he thought miserably--left the house. Spring field crickets chirred in the darkness but stopped as he passed, and their sudden silence felt to him like censure. The moon poured silver over the town, and his black shadow kept company at his side. He walked without particular purpose, walked because he couldn't be still, walked mindless, walked dead.” ParallelismWonderful ImageryLanguage Used Beautifully Book:The River We Remember Source: The River We Remember
“When it happens and it hits hard, we decide certain things, and realize there's truth in all those dark, lonely days" He had an instantaneous look about him, a glimmer and a glint over those eyes, he knew how the world worked, and took pleasure in its wickedness. He would give a dime or two to those sitting on the street, he would tell them things like: "It won't get any better," and "Might as well use this to buy your next fix," and finally "It's better to die high than to live sober," His suit was pressed nicely, with care and respect, like the kind a corpse wears, he'd say that was his way of honoring the dead, of always being ready for the oncoming train, I liked him, he never wore a fake smile and he was always ready to tell a story about how and when "We all wake up alone," he said once, "Oftentimes even when sleeping next to someone, we wake up before them and they are still asleep and suddenly we are awake, and alone." I didn't see him for a few days, a few days later it felt like it'd been weeks, those weeks drifted apart from one another, like leaves on a pond's surface, and became like months. And then I saw him and I asked him where he'd been, he said, "I woke up alone one day, just like any other, and I decided I didn't like it anymore.” LoveLifeRomanceDeathNightHopeSexSleepMusicHistoryMoonAmbitionDestructionTragedySuicideIntuitionPoint Of ViewDrunkInnocenceWeedReincarnationDrugsRebirthEroticEroticaAlcoholismCocaineWhiskeyDaydreamingHeroinPhoenixCokeBoozeHalf FullHalf EmptyTrainsBottleCrackParallelismWhistlesDave Matthes Book:Ejaculation: New Poems and Stories Source: Ejaculation: New Poems and Stories
“Some authors state that the last stage in this chain of measurements involves "consciousness," or the "intellectual inner life" of the observer, by virtue of the "principle of psycho-physical parallelism." Other authors introduce a wave function for the entire universe.

“The parallelism, or denial of any causation between mind and body, derives basically, and fallaciously, from a theory of substances as having complete concepts that include everything that is true of them.” MindBodyTheoryConceptsDenialSubstanceMind And BodyCausationParallelism Author:Gonzalo Rodriguez-Pereyra
“Because of Walter, we did it the other way around. We also worked with an awesome sound designer named Will Patterson who just worked for four years on Terrence Malick's films. He did a lot of conceptual work to make the soundscapes in the jungle have this surreal quality, to blend these two films because a lot of the images are about this parallelism between the movies. The sound was very integral to fusing everything.” WayYearsTwoFilmSoundQualityFourDesignerFour YearsJungleSurrealParallelism Author:Sam Pressman
