Why should some foul word-slinging curb my ambitions? ↗

Ebediyet beni ilgilendirmez. Ben bir meşeyim, ne bir eksik ne bir fazla. Bir görevim var ve yerine getiriyorum; hoşlandığım şeyler var ve onlardan keyif alıyorum. Gerçi sayıca azaldılar. Çünkü kuşlar da azaldı. Hem, rüzgâr da berbat kokuyor artık. Tamam, uzun ömürlüyüm ama benim de geçici bir şey olmaya hakkım var. Ölümlü olma ayrıcalığım var. Oysa bu ayrıcalık elimden alındı. ... Dünya da ölümü gözleriyle görmek isteyen varsa bu onların sorunu, benim değil. Onlar için Ebediyet'i oynayamam. Ölüm isteyen, ağaçlara başvurmasın. Görmek istedikleri o ise, birbirlerinin gözlerine baksınlar ve ölümü orada görsünler. │ Rüzgarın On İki Yakası - Yolun Yönü ↗

"Or did you shout, 'Kami's in the well!' before jumping in the well too, thus loosing your phone and making sure the police think it was some kids playing a dumb joke?" Jared paused. [...] "Alternate plan," Jared said. "Do you have a very intelligent collie who might communicate through a system of barks to your parents that little Kami is in the well? ↗

Kai neared his desk again, seeing that the fugitive's profile had been transferred to the screen. His frown deepened. Perhaps not dangerous, but young and inarguably good-looking. His prison photo showed him flippantly winking at the camera. Kai hated him immediately. ↗

I was in the biggest breakdown of my life when I stopped crying long enough to let the words of my epiphany really sink in. That whore, karma had finally made her way around and had just bitch-slapped me right across the face. The realization only made me cry harder. ↗

Karma comes after everyone eventually. You can't get away with screwing people over your whole life, I don't care who you are. What goes around comes around. That's how it works. Sooner or later the universe will serve you the revenge that you deserve. ↗

After the first glass of vodka you can accept just about anything of life even your own mysteriousness you think it is nice that a box of matches is purple and brown and is called La Petite and comes from Sweden for they are words that you know and that is all you know words not their feelings or what they mean and you write because you know them not because you understand them because you don't you are stupid and lazy and will never be great but you do what you know because what else is there? ↗
