“From now on you are a rock.  You absorb nothing. You say nothing. And nothing breaks you.” - Frank Underwood - House of Cards

“I did not want to think so much about her.  I wanted to take her as an unexpected, delightful gift that had come and would go again - nothing more.  I meant not to give room to the thought that it could ever be more. I knew too well that all love has the desire for eternity and that therein lies its eternal torment.  Nothing lasts. Nothing.” 

- Erich Maria Remarque

I want to cry, but I will not.
Not now, not when people will hear,
and wonder why a grown man,
of sound mind and body,
is howling into the night.
