ooh~ philosophy~ “i think, therefore i am,” are you inspired yet? do you need more quotes? “to live is to suffer, uhm.. and… what was it again? to suffer is to not have anime to watch,” said by Friedrich Nietzsche, probably

if it were allowed, more people would be sleeping for ten hours a night; unfortunately, we’re too busy to have such a pleasure. to have more energy for the things we spent our time doing, just to feel better overall, maybe this is asking for too much

two corners befall you: you peek left to clear for enemies, then you peek right to clear for more enemies. you peek left for a split second, spot an enemy, yet you still peek right, even after spotting them. you never committed to the first peek; now you get shot from behind

you can hide something all you want, but that behavior would lead to suspicion; you’ll also have to hide the fact you’re hiding something. some people seem to focus too much on hiding the thing, then they’re easily noticed as suspicious, and then that suspicion gets them caught

happiness is something very difficult to let go of. when you miss someone, you recall the experiences you shared, wanting to feel whatever emotions you felt at the time. you want that kind of happiness again, the specific kind of happiness you felt with them

if you're going to bribe someone, you'll need to treat them with some amount of respect. disrespect them enough, and their ego will be hurt to the point of refusing your offer, even if it's what's best for them

you acted without thinking, now you’re here to suffer the consequences. do you think you have any right to complain? it’s a privilege you don’t deserve. you very well could’ve avoided how things went; it was your decision to rush things

you’re bad at something you haven’t practiced? that’s strange; would’ve figured you’d immediately excel at the activity. if you tried practicing, really putting in the effort, maybe after a while, you’d be pretty good at it

could we end our story with a ‘happily ever after’? probably not, but we can at least be happily together for now. we could try for the ‘ever after’.. it’s just… unlikely

a person's gender identity is irrelevant to their quality of character; it doesn't reflect their sense of morality, set of beliefs, or personal values. if a person lies about themself or keeps themself hidden, that's something to judge them by, but take -> context <- into account

i've grown increasingly dissociated, my present reality further removed as an experience felt. i can stare at a wall, see its color, discern its texture, gauge its distance, but the feeling of a 'wall' isn't there. i can understand something clearly, i just can't feel its essence

you want what you want, without ever understanding the reasoning behind those desires. have you ever thought about it? you never think about anything. you’re going about it the wrong way; you’ll never be satisfied, even after succeeding, because you never addressed the root cause

i was given everything; you were given nothing, despite deserving things more. our circumstances aren’t interchangeable, and i’m sorry, but even if they were, i could never let go of what i have; i’m very selfish like that. i’m quite the merry fellow, while you lie there bare

this event was about you, it just wasn’t for you. the guests of the venue, it was just for their entertainment. you were a commodity, something to be admired

hunger affects your condition, thirst affects your condition, rest affects your condition. all these different factors, affecting your capacity to perform, and yet you choose to starve? to be dehydrated? to be sleep-deprived? why would you choose a lower quality of performance

left one? left one, slender is best

with enough focus, i can hear music playing, its notes and rhythm so perfectly matched, as if it were really there. with enough focus, i can see an image so clear, with colors so defined, as if it were really there. perhaps, with enough focus, i could feel an emotion i don't have

these people were dedicated to their craft, and yet you, someone who’s only ever done anything halfheartedly, think you deserve the privilege of envy? if you worked harder, just as hard as they did, at least your feelings would be justified; unfortunately, you didn’t

things seem to work out, even without my efforts; what's the point of doing anything at all? if i stay still, i'll never move forward; i'll only ever be where i am now. maybe, there's still some merit in trying; the outcome would be better, instead of just being good enough
