(I read this in Polish so I don't know what the proper English translation of this quote is) I was reading The New Gods by Emil Cioran while having my depressive episode and constantly analyzing my past (former gifted child here) not knowing where to go next. I was extremely confused and then this sentence came to me:

>my memory is cluttered with the remains of shattered horizons

and I thought then that I couldn't describe my state of mind any better. It helped me sort some things out in my head.
