How can you be happy in this world? You have a hole in your heart. You have a gateway inside you to lands beyond the world you know. They will call you, as you grow. There can never be a time when you forget them, when you are not, in your heart, questing after something you cannot have, something you cannot even properly imagine, the lack of which will spoil your sleep and your day and your life, until you close your eyes for the final time.. . Neil Gaiman
About This Quote

Every human has a different way of looking at the world. We are all unique in that respect, but I really believe that we are all alike in one particular way. We all have a hole in our hearts. This hole is the gateway to whatever land beyond this world may exist. This is why it’s so important to make the most of every day, because if you don’t, you will miss out on seeing what you are truly capable of achieving.
