antematter
n. the dream versions of things in your life, which appear totally foreign but are still somehow yours—your anteschool, your antefriends, your antehome—all part of a parallel world whose gravitational pull raises your life’s emotional stakes, increasing the chances you’ll end up betting everything you have.

“I’m free, I think. I shut my eyes and think hard and deep about how free I am, but I can’t really understand how it means. All I know is I’m totally alone. All alone in an unfamiliar place, like some solitary explorer who’s lost his compass and his map. Is this what it means to be free? I don’t know and I give up thinking about it.”
—Haruki Murakami (Kafka on the Shore)

“The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That’s the only lasting thing you can create.”
—CHOKE, CHUCK PALAHNIUK. (via thebookthieves)
“Avoid using cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs as alternatives to being an interesting person.”
