I Never Knew What I Wanted To Do. I Studied Law, Human Resources, I Had A Job At A Bank, It Was Shitty.

i'm so so proud of jack for making the right decision and stepping back, especially because i can imagine how hard it must have been for him mentaly to come to terms with the fact that once again his season is over

he is the heart and soul of the devils, as luke said and it's heartbreaking to see it happening again

“I want us to have history, something longer than the small window of time we’re actually sharing, with an even longer future.” — mateo

i've read this book two years ago but i'm crying harder now ;(

“But only in their dreams can men be truly free. 'Twas always thus and always thus will be.”

You’re so much prettier when you smile.

“coming of age” books and movies are so stupid like being a teenager isn’t about having sex and going to parties it’s about staring out your car window after hanging out with your old best friends who you haven’t seen in months and realizing that you aren’t actually friends anymore and that your childhood has been well and truly dead since you were thirteen

you still have so many years to meet so many people you never knew you could love so much

"if i was orpheus i would simply not turn around" yes you would. if you were orpheus and you loved eurydice, you would. to love someone is to turn around. to love someone is to look at them. whichever version of the myth — he hears her stumble, he can't hear her at all, he thinks he's been tricked — he turns around because he loves her. that's why it's a tragedy. because he loves her enough to save her. because he loves her so much he can't save her. because he will always, always turn around. "if i was orpheus i would simply —" you wouldn't be orpheus. you wouldn't be brave enough to walk into the underworld and save the person you love. be serious

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself. When you are born a lotus flower, be a beautiful lotus flower, don't try to be a magnolia flower. If you crave acceptance and recognition and try to change yourself to fit what other people want you to be, you will suffer all your life. True happiness and true power lie in understanding yourself, accepting yourself, having confidence in yourself.
