Simone de Beauvoir
I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want.

David Mitchell
Travel far enough, you meet yourself.
David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas
