"I realized these were all the snapshots which our children would look at someday with wonder, thinking their parents had lived smooth, well-ordered lives and got up in the morning to walk proudly on the sidewalks of life, never dreaming the raggedy madness and riot of our actual lives, our actual night, the hell of it, the senseless emptiness." - Jack Kerouac . 5D Mark IV/ Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2EAg3ip

"We sit silently and watch the world around us. This has taken a lifetime to learn. It seems only the old are able to sit next to one another and not say anything and still feel content. The young, brash and impatient, must always break the silence. It is a waste, for silence is pure. Silence is holy. It draws people together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking." - Nicholas Sparks . @kieshawestt . 5D Mark IV/ Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2ILwpKj

"I don’t know if you’ve ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That’s why I’m trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning." - Stephen Chbosky . @kieshawestt . 5D Mark IV/ Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2XoNqxc

"Words do not express thoughts very well. they always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom to one man seems nonsense to another." . 5D Mark IV/ Tamron 70-200 f2.8 view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2ExkuLV

"to be honest, for this reason I suspect this utopia that well-meaning politicians and sociologists together with engineers are building all over the world will become a great disappointment. Granted it's possible that I’m being too pessimistic about our conditions, but I think life is transforming more and more into a wild chain dance to a silent orchestra. And do you know of a more disturbing sight? It is as if one sees the dead dancing upon their own graves doomed to disappear back into the earth with a somersault by the first crow of the rooster" - Henrik Pontoppidan . @kieshawestt . 5D Mark IV/ Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2Nm6N5f
