“Of all modern notions, the worst is this: that domesticity is dull. Inside the home, they say, is dead decorum and routine; outside is adventure and variety. But the truth is that the home is the only place of liberty, the only spot on earth where a man can alter arrangements suddenly, make an experiment or indulge in a whim. The home is not the one tame place in a world of adventure; it is the one wild place in a world of rules and set tasks.”
― G.K. Chesterton

“I am always a different man; a reinterpretation of the man I was yesterday, and the day before, and all the days I have lived. The past is gone, was always gone; it does not exist, except in memory, and what is memory but thought, a copy of perception, no less but no more replete with truth than any passing whim, fancy, or other agitation of the mind. And if it is actions, words, thoughts that define an individual, those definitions alter like the weather - if continuity and pattern are often discernible, so are chaos and sudden change.”
― K.J. Bishop, The Etched City

“You jumped in your car and drove here from New York on a whim. I don't do much of anything as a whim."
As if needing to prove her wrong- because something inside of him felt as if he did- Max stood up from his stool and walked around to her side of the counter. Slowly and deliberately. Waves of pink began rushing up her neck and he had a gratifying epiphany.
So I'm the cause of that shade.
Although, really, he knew he was the cause of all the shades. But he sure liked that one best.
"I don't know, Hadley. I think it's been a pretty whimsical night."
Her lips curled up in acknowledgement. "This has all been very unlike me. But that doesn't change the fact that down the road, beyond right now-"
He leaned down so they were eye-to-eye and whispered, "Who said anything about beyond right now?”

“It is no life to be always under someone's control, subject to their will and whim.”
― Holly Black, The Queen of Nothing

“Paradise is no whim.
It takes time and trust,
You see.”
― Scott Hastie

“Instead of a feeling, think of love as an action. The feeling of love comes and goes on a whim; you can’t control it. But the action of love is something you can do, regardless of how you are feeling.”
― Russ Harris

“Fortune is imagination’s whim, still must be pursued if one is to live his life’s worth.”
― Mukta Singh-Zocchi, Game of Big Numbers

“Certain things were important in the moment and so you called, only with insight and dread to catch up with you later. Sensory states came and went. You could call on a whim and there was no guarantee that the whim would return. But an entire life could be changed by one phone call made on such a whim at the exact right, or wrong, moment.”
― Lena Andersson, Utan personligt ansvar
