KEIRA KNIGHTLEY as ELIZABETH BENNET Pride and Prejudice | dir. Joe Wright

Darcy and the Bingley sisters trying to pull Bingley away from Jane... literally

"The boat was actually Plan C. The church was Plan B. And Plan A was marrying her a long, long time ago. Pretty much the day I met her."

"NIAGARA", OCTOBER 8, 2009

I want you to imagine a ten year old version of yourself sitting right there on this couch. Now this is the little girl who first believed that she was fat, and ugly, and an embarrassment.

Sometimes she sees herself in the ground, and at the same time she sees herself digging up the corpse.

Jenny Erpenbeck, Kairos, tr. Michael Hofmann

- they come to your house

- you have to openly tick the box for being annexed by russia (or for staying with ukraine if you feel suicidal)

- all while armed gunmen watch you
