It is the feeling of never knowing what we want that truly drives us all mad.... Holding things because we think in a moment we love them only to uncurl our fingers later and softly give them back to the earth.

About This Quote

We can’t be sure if we ever want to get married, having a child or to buy a car. We hold on to things for a number of reasons, the most common being that we think we might want them later. We have been told that one day we will come to our senses and regret it when the time comes, but when the time never comes, what do we have? The feeling of never knowing what we want.
