31"Naturally every person desires to work according to his abilities in this world, but it follows from this that he wishes to develop his abilities in a particular direction, namely, in that which is best suited to him as an individual. But what is that? Here I am confronted with a big question mark. Here I stand like Hercules -not at the crossroads-no, but at a multitude of roads, and therefore it is all the harder to choose the right one. Perhaps it is my misfortune in life that I am interested in far too many things rather than definitely in any one thing. My interests are not at all subordinated to one but are all coordinate." - Soren Kierkegaard (via venula)
132"Sometimes the slightest things change the directions of our lives, the merest breath of a circumstance, a random moment that connects like a meteorite striking the earth. Lives have swiveled and changed direction on the strength of a chance remark." - Bryce Courtenay (via infinitives)
22"I really truly think that you are a waste of time. I’m not trying to be mean, only truthful. I know people say the truth hurts, but it doesn’t really hurt. It strikes you with reality, realizing how worthless you really are. It shows how you aren’t as beautiful as your fantasies as you think. I wake up everyday and see this in the reflection. You’re lucky you are still living in the fantasies." - Airudite (via aquaticuss)
