E.e. Cummings, From “Longing” (in Uncollected Poems), Complete Poems: 1904-1962

“I hope that someday, somebody wants to hold you for twenty minutes straight, and that’s all they do. They don’t pull away. They don’t look at your face. They don’t try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms, without an ounce of selfishness in it.”

— Unknown

“The right one for you will move mountains to be with you—he won’t hide behind them.”

— Mandy Hale, The Single Woman

The mind is a child that poisons the body over it's tantrums

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

Helen Keller

The seed doesn’t have a flower within itself. It’s actually the home of a dormant life that can awaken and transform with the creative power of connection. Earth and sun are in a dance older than our time. See how they kiss each other in all the trees and flowers.

Jenny Slate, Little Weirds

“Don’t touch me if you don’t mean it.”

— The War Boys (2009)

I have my best ideas high

I just can't remember them...

“Your naked body should only belong to those who fall in love with your naked soul.”

— Charlie Chaplin in a letter to his daughter, Geraldine

It’s better to be your genuine self, and have fewer of the right kinds of people in your life, than it is to surround yourself with those who only accept you as long as you conform to their idea of who you should be.
