“Literature can stop my heart and execute me for a moment, allow me to become someone else. It is another chance at history. It is also my opportunity to align myself with the sort of American that I would like to be.” —Colum McCann

Part of this NYT series about the 2000’s.
Can’t wait to start watching this!
I just watched 5 episodes in the past two days. So good.
“The great moments of your life won’t necessarily be the things you do, they’ll also be the things that happen to you. Now I’m not saying you can’t take action to affect the outcome of your life, you have to take action, and you will. But never forget that on any day, you can step out the front door and your whole life can change forever.”
How I Met Your Mother
“Life after college? I wish I could tell you. Life evolves. It never turns out to be what you expected. It’s full of surprises. It’s good to have goals as long as there’s plenty of room to change your mind — and when things don’t go your way, to be strong enough to get through it.”
Judy Blume (via mascarah)
“That’s life. If nothing else, its life. It’s real, and sometimes it fuckin’ hurts, but it’s sort of all we have.”
Sam | Garden State (via julie911)
“I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can’t tell fast enough, the ears that aren’t big enough, the eyes that can’t take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone.”

“The children most broken by the world are the adults most likely to change it.”
