Susan Sontag, As Consciousness Is Harnessed to Flesh

An absence so heavy it becomes a presence

#gayle forman #quotes #lonliness

“I’m surrounded by people and feel alone. I claim to crave a bit of normalcy but now that I have some, it’s like I don’t know what to do with it, I don’t know how to be a normal person anymore.”

— Where She Went, Gayle Forman

“I had a strong sudden instinct that I must be alone. I didn’t want to see any people at all. I had seen so many people all my life – I was an average mixer, but more than average in a tendency to identify myself, my ideas, my destiny, with those of all classes that came in contact with. I was always saving or being saved – in a single morning I would go through the emotions ascribable to Wellington at Waterloo. I lived in a world of inscrutable hostiles and inalienable friends and supporters. “

the spirit is not willing and the flesh it is not so into the idea either
