Quotes from Martine Murray

Love was life's secret purpose.

I think when people get stuck in situations that go against their soul, they can't be happy. That's all.

When did you trust someone to hold a truth as carefully as you did?

There's the waiting for something you don't know is coming. You don't even know what it is exactly, but you're hoping for it. You're imagining and living your life for it. That's the kind of waiting that makes a fist in your heart.

In the impermanence of life, it was impossible to accept the foreverness of death.

But sometimes you just have to be your own eyes. You have to see yourself shining and stop waiting for other eyes to see you.

Love was life's secret purpose.

But underneath it there was not a sound, there was nothing that even whimpered or budged in our tunnel and it seemed Harry and me were tightly sealed inside something, like two secret letters lying next to each other in an envelope.

A list of things you might not hear: eylash opening on the pillow, the appearance of a star, a leaf leaving a tree, a hand in your hair, a lie being withheld, a tear's journey from eye to shoe, air becoming blue, longing.

When a lie is not for yourself it's easier to say it.

Guitarists always start in the bedroom

I like playing my guitar when I expect nothing from it.

I don't know anyone else who could dream a world where nothing ends.

Her ?ey dönü?ecek, de?i?ecek ve dengede duracak gibi görünüyordu. Molly kendini haz?r hissetti. Fakat ne için, emin de?ildi. Ama içinde bir ?ey aç?lm??t? sanki. Hayat?n tuhaf bir düzeni vard? ve onu kendi etraflar?nda hissedebiliyordu.

Molly s?rt?n? dikle?tirdi ve bir anl???na kendini bir at?n üstünden dünyaya bakarken hayal etti; onu kurtarmaya haz?rd?; kalbinin küt küt atmas?na, ne tür bir karanl?k ya?an?rsa ya?ans?n, karanl???n içinde parlamaya haz?rd?.

I sing just to sing it all to the surface. All the things we can't hold on to: life as it once was and isn't any longer, I guess.
