panic

I know that this isn't some quote from an old author or philosopher, but it really is amazing to me. And the song it goes to is beautiful. Full credit for this quote goes to Ryan Ross, who is not in the band Panic! at the Disco anymore, but still gave us this line to feed off of. Some quotes are so straight forward, but this line leaves you wondering somehow, yet you know what it means. i love it. I hope you love it as much as I love it.

Anxiety is love's greatest killer. It makes others feel as you might when a drowning man holds on to you. You want to save him, but you know he will strangle you with his panic.

For civilization to survive, the human race must remain civilized.

How important things had become, now that they were gone!  I felt a sudden panic that I would soon forget everything.
