"There's something I have to tell you. The books never hurt me. The ideal world of books has an atmosphere of poetry that purifies everything... do you hear?" (Letter from Renee Vivien)

“Il faut que je vous dise quelque chose : c'est que les livres ne m'ont jamais fait de mal. Le monde idéal des livres a une atmosphère de poésie qui épure Tout… entendez-vous ?” (Lettre de Renée Vivien)

we are not born to die!! what are you talking about!! do you think a book begins just to finish? do you think a song opens with a beautiful chord just for it to end? you don’t read the book to finish it, you read the book to eat up the excitement and the emotions it evokes!! to learn and to digest and to fall in love and be heartbroken!! you listen to the song to dance and dance and sing your throat raw!!! to cry and smile and swell with the harmonies!! yes, we are born with the inevitable fate of death, we are mortal after all, but that is merely the finale of the play!! the final act, the closing of the curtains - we are not born to take a bow and exit stage left!! we are born to love and be joyous and yell and move and learn and cry and feelfeelfeel!!!  we are not born to die, silly, we’re born to live!!!

these are the valentine’s day hours on the website of a flower shop not far from my apartment & i thought “8 am - ‘til the last rose” was really cute 

wish someone would re-pot me like a plant

et tu, wanting to read and write and learn yet choosing to mindlessly scroll through tumblr for hours on end?
