Space Quotes

Life, Time, Live

I would hate to think I'm promoting sadness as an aesthetic. But I grew up in not just a family but a town and a culture where sadness is something you're taught to feel shame about. You end up chronically desiring what can be a very sentimental idea of love and connection. A lot of my work has been about trying to make a space for sadness.
Mike Mills

Love, Work, Family

John Hodgman

Same, Fighting, Problem

Jack Dee

Good, Difficult, Everyone
