Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting.

J. M. Barrie: Peter Pan.

Des Menschen Herz erdenkt sich seinen Weg; aber der HERR allein lenkt seinen Schritt.

Sprüche 16,9

So, jetzt erzähl doch mal was du so machst. Ich weiß eigentlich nichts von dir, außer dass du irgendwie nerdig bist.

It’s not about doing things different from others, it’s about doing things different from yourself.

(frei nach) Benjamin Reichen, Åbäke

— Ah, jetzt stecke ich dich aber in eine Schublade.
— Und was steht drauf?
— Dein Name.

You know the great thing, though, is that change can be so constant you don’t even feel the difference until there is one. It can be so slow that you don’t even notice that your life is better or worse, until it is. Or it can just blow you away, make you something different in an instant.

George Monroe. Life As A House

What if you slept
And what if
In your sleep
You dreamed
And what if
In your dream
You went to heaven
And there plucked a strange and beautiful flower
And what if
When you awoke
You had that flower in you hand
Ah, what then?

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Okay, I’m going to say something out loud that I’ve been doing a pretty good job of not saying out loud lately.
What you and Tony have, what I thought—for a second—you and I had, what I know that Marshall and Lily have, I want that. I do. I keep waiting for it to happen. I’m waiting for it to happen and I guess I’m just tired of waiting.
And that is all I’m going to say on that subject.
