“You know, it’s quite a job starting to love somebody. You have to have energy, generosity, blindness. There is even a moment, in the very beginning, when you have to jump across a precipice: if you think about it you don’t do it. I know I’ll never jump again.”— Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea

“I’d still love you, If the world stops spinning If heaven and hell tear us apart If you ever forget me I’d still love you, If I find out you weren’t made for me If these years in my life were nothing but a lesson If we were just a bad dream Darling, I’d still love you, If I never hold you in my arms If I never hear you speak I’d still love you, If one day I love another and If you don’t love me, I’d still love you”— Richa Gill (@RiichaG_)
