"Philtatos," Achilles Replied, Sharply. Most Beloved.”

my only ambition in life is to have a massive wall to wall bookshelf full of books I've read/am reading that makes people go :O

And in the end we are all just humans, drunk on the idea that love, only love could heal our brokeness.

this post. all these words. These women. I love you so much♥♥

Alas

shout out to everyone who participated in the january-february mass depressive episode

Boys break-up with you and say "I wish you to be the happiest girl on earth" when precisely you were the happiest while you were with them. Ugh

"So much working, reading, thinking, living to do. A lifetime is not long enough."

-Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“But in a solitary life, there are rare moments when another soul dips near yours, as stars once a year brush the earth. Such a constellation was he to me.”

— Madeline Miller, Circe

“Why do we read books that make us weep? Undoubtedly because we never have, in reality, enough to lament. We need to gamble with fire, with blood, with mourning, not because we are gamblers, but because we need to almost die. We need to mourn for ourselves. And yet to stay alive.”

— Stigmata: Escaping Texts, “In October 1991…” by Hélène Cixous tr. Keith Cohen

all-women productions of shakespeare plays are so enlightened not for necessarily any feminist reason i just really like it when women kiss and duel each other to the death

malec never had a bad track. "loving you made me believe in eternity"? SLAPS. "take my hands, and take my strength too"? BANGER. "you're my heart, magnus bane. stay unbroken for me"? ICONIC. and don't even get me STARTED on "aku cinta kamu"
