Dear Life

“The definition of a mathematician is a person who talks in other people’s sleep.” John Lennox (mathematician). This made me happy: I’m glad there’s at least one mathematician in the world with a sense of humour and the ability to poke fun at their profession. (via thecolourofmagic)

“It all just feels so fake, you know? This idea that good things happen to good people. That there’s magic in the world, and that the meek and the righteous will inherit it. Too many good people suffer for that to be true. Too many prayers go unanswered. And every day it just gets worse. Every day we ignore how truly broken this world is, and we tell ourselves it’s all going to be okay. But it’s not going to be okay. And once you know that, there’s no going back. There’s no magic in the world…at least today there isn’t.”

“Fettucini alfredo is macaroni and cheese for adults.”

“How nice - to feel nothing, and still get full credit for being alive.” Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five (via honeyforthehomeless)
