“THE SILENT PEOPLE

Some people are so rude,
Living their lives with no concern for others,
Or possibly just intent on pissing other people off-
Annoying everyone around them.

The silent people-
Want to kill them-
And drive forks into their skulls-
Create weapons of extreme torture-
And scream from the top of their lungs-
"SHUT UP."

But words are not spoken-
And attention is not given.
Though annoyance is apparent,
The annoying keep on living.”
― Giorge Leedy, Uninhibited From Lust To Love

“It's not the dead even. They're gone. Nothing you can do about that. It's what's left behind - the echo. These woods you're walking through.

He screams, it echoes, just bounces back and forth, the sound getting smaller and smaller, but never entirely disappearing. Like a part of his is still calling out, even now.”
― Harlan Coben, The Woods

“Crno, sve je crno. Niodakle ne dopire nagoveštaj dana, a nema ni sijalica, ni sveća. Nema radosti, ni osmeha koji se nazire, niti najslabijeg odjeka smeha (...). Jedino što ječi su jauci i jadikovanje. Mrak se rasprostire i u njemu se muči sve što misli da mu se može suprotstaviti, stremeći ka nepreglednom ponoru ka kojem klizi. Ali, u nekom momentu, crno je počelo da se pomera. Nešto se u svoj toj tmuši trzalo i naprezalo, grčilo se i grizlo, a potom stalo da se nijansira – da postaje sve tamnijim, dok nije postalo previše tamno da bi se moglo razaznati.”
― Boban Trifunović, Jaganjci

Theodore: WHAT. CUDDLE?”
