" Does Such A Thing As ' The Fatal Flaw ' , That Showy Dark Crack Running Down The Middle Of A Life ,

Sometimes I wish life was like a book so I could sneak a peek at the last few pages just to make sure everything turns out okay.

[ID: A page of a play. It reads as follows, "Theseus: Stop. Give me your hand. I am your friend. / Herakles: I fear to stain your clothes with blood. / Theseus: Stain them, I don't care." End text.]

Herakles - Euripides (Tr. Anne Carson)

I'm tired of this generation, I want a man from the 1800's to invite me to a ball and dance with him.

If there's one piece of advice I can give to long distance couples, it's call. Every. Single. Day. If you can facetime/video chat, that's even better. Show up for your partner at the end of every day, be there for them, ask them about their day, laugh and cry together. Just because you're far away from each other, doesn't mean you have to be apart.

Being called "my love" will always be superior to just "love", I will not elaborate.

1. Ophelia by John William Waterhouse (1910) 2. Imogen by Herbert Gustave Schmalz (1888) 3. King Arthur by Charles Ernest Butler (1903) 4. Sir Galahad by George Frederic Watts (1862) LOTR + art (27/?)

"A room without books is like a body without a soul"

-Marcus Tullius Cicero

I completely blame literature for my romanticisation of murder.
