- Typing in dim lighting
Typing in a dimly lit room is a great way to refine muscle memory! As you look down from the bright screen, your eyes will take a second to adjust. This provides an accountable buffer for any keys you are not confident to type without looking at all. Do it in moderation; look up every few minutes and whatnot. Remember to also step into the light and enjoy the improvement.

Shrouded by night, but with steady stride. Colored by blood, but always clear of mind. Proud hunter of the church. Beasts are a curse, and a curse is a shackle. Only ye are the true blades of the church.

I said I believe in love. They said I'm the worst tennis player in the history of the sport. I said tennis is not my sport. They said based on my performance in tennis, they can't imagine me having any potential in sports at all.

- source of knowledge
Studying is the main source of knowledge. Books are indeed never failing friends of man. For a mature mind, reading is the greatest source of pleasure and solace. To distressed minds, the study of good books ennobles us and broadens our outlook. Therefore, the habit of reading should be cultivated. A student should never confine himself to his schoolbooks only. He should not miss the pleasure locked in the classics - poetry, drama, history, philosophy, etc.

- Removal
Several months ago, finding myself in possession of one hundred and seventeen chairs divided about evenly between a city house and a country house, and desiring to simplify my life, I sold half of my worldly goods, evacuated the city house, gave up my employment, and came to live in New England.

- This helps my ADHD
I started this because I wanted to improve my typing speed, but It has turned into away to give my brain a break while at work. When I feel brain fog or burn out coming on I open this page and set a timer for about 5 min. Then when the time is up I go back to working on the task I have to do for work. For some reason this make my ADHD brain happy and I am able to be more productive and It also builds my typing skills. So, I really hope no one at work thinks I'm trying to just look busy.

Then you told me how you had an uncle who played the villain in those movies and how he died, and then you cried. You apologized profusely. I was nervous that this was as good as I could ever feel, and I was right.

- My turn I guess
I've typed a lot of quotes where people talk about why they use this site. I was surprised to find that most of you typists are much older than me. I am 16, almost 17 years old. I type because I have ADHD and when I was in 4th grade I got an intense hyperfixation on typing. 7 years later, it's still strong.

- A Paradise
To be able to go to a place where I can escape from everything and everyone, and then come back when I miss the few things I actually cherish here, would be heavenly. A place where I can be my true self without having to worry about who's going to make fun of me or judge me for it. A place where my feelings matter. A place where I'm appreciated for the things I do. A place where I can talk about the things I'm passionate about and have people actually listen. A paradise.

- The Other Side...
No one can tell you what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don't.

- I like it when it rains while I sleep
I like it when it rains while I sleep but I don't know why. Is it because of the noise? Is it because I somehow feel calm and relaxed because of it? I don't know why but what's important is that I sleep comfortably.

- Easy or Hard
It's easier to be angry. It's easier to hold grudges. It's easier to be faithless. It's easier to be pessimistic. It's easier to be lazy. It's easier to be fat. It's easier to externalize your failures. Why take accountability for your actions and emotions when you can easily dismiss that accountability? Sure it's easier, but I won't affirm your delusion. Growth is not attained through that which is easy. Growth is attained by pushing yourself to do that which is hard.
Me Am the Writer
Am I the only person on this website who doesn't even know or understand the quote they're typing until the last sentence, but all they're trying to do is type fast and accurately?

- Algebraic Topology
One of the main ideas of algebraic topology is to consider two spaces to be equivalent if they have 'the same shape' in a sense that is much broader than homeomorphism. To take an everyday example, the letters of the alphabet can be written either as unions of finitely many straight and curved line segments, or in thickened forms that are compact regions in the plane bounded by one or more simple closed curves.

Moon, a hole of light. Through the big top tent up high. Here before and after me, shining down on me. Moon, tell me if I could send up my heart to you? So, when I die, which I must do, could it shine down here with you?

- Stolen Bike
I just walked out this morning to find that my bike was stolen. There's a sickening feeling sitting in my stomach. I can't stop thinking about what I could've done to prevent this. On top of that, I think about how much money I put into that bike and how much money and effort will need to go into getting a new one, not to mention keeping that one safe. Why do people suck?
World War Z
- Mother Nature
Mother Nature is a serial killer. No one's better, or more creative. Like all serial killers she can't help the urge to want to get caught. What good are all those brilliant crimes if no one takes the credit? So she leaves crumbs. Now the hard part, why you spend a decade in school, is seeing the crumbs. But the clue's there. Sometimes the thing you thought was the most brutal aspect of the virus turns out to be the chink in its armor, and she loves disguising her weaknesses as strengths.

- The World
Some days I think back on my life and the things I took for granted. Seeing the world now and wishing I had done different things or lived my life fuller than I have. The world is crumbling apart at my feet and I'm terrified of not having a future. I'm scared of being robbed of my future and existence by the fault of others, and there is nothing I can do about it.

The behavior we call "spoiled" isn't just the result of giving children too much. It's the result of giving children too many material things and not enough love and guidance, especially when the material things are treated like a substitute for love.

I liked someone, but had to leave them because it was weighing on my mind. It was mainly on my side, though I doubt he has feelings for me. When he found someone I felt like Jessie from Toy Story. 'When somebody loved me everything was beautiful. Every hour we spent together, lives within my heart. And when he was sad, I was there to dry his tears. And when he was happy so was I, when he loved me'
