Quotes
Sometimes I think that we're all like that, just bundles of contradictions.
Perhaps it is not the season for the heart to bloom.
Time does not change us. It just unfolds us.
The sea is a hard country.
We are all like the bright moon, we still have our darker side.
There is a sadness in life that we must all pass through.
The sea does not change and is always there.
There are some things that we can never escape, no matter how far we run.
We are all shaped by the land that claims us.
The past is always with us, like the salt in our blood.
