words running madness.

the problem with being a dreamer, a writer, a poet, is not that they feel more than everyone else. It is that they cannot escape from it. all the pain, ache and explosions,- others can dismiss as merely a feeling that cannot be contained. but for us, there are endless words to describe the way we feel, to actualize the feeling, to give it existence, to gravitate them. the irresistible impulse to label everything, to get to the bottom of every unexplainable feeling is crippling. to live as a writer is non-apologetic. everywhere that you try to escape to, is aesthetically numb. even when you do not see what reminds you of it, words are running madness inside your head.
thank you lelove

are.

I'M DRAWN TO A TOUCH OF ELEGANCE, LIGHTNESS, AND YOUTHFULNESS. PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT JUST PRESENTING AN IMAGE, BUT A REPUTATION AS WELL. PEOPLE WHO LIVE NONCHALANTLY, IN BOTH LARGE CITIES AND IN SMALL TOWNS; PEOPLE WHO FOCUS ON QUALITY OF SOLID TRADITIONS THEY’VE TURNED INTO GUIDELINES FOR CONTEMPORARY LIFE; PEOPLE FAMILIAR WITH THAT KIND OF WELL-EDUCATED LUXURY THAT MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE, YET NEVER FLAUNTING IT; PEOPLE WHO ALSO KNOW HOW TO TAKE A BREAK FROM IT ALL AND CAN JUST RELAX, HAVE FUN, AND JOKE WITH FRIENDS. SPECIAL, “COMPLETE,” RESPECTABLE PEOPLE, PEOPLE WHO REALLY HAVE NO NEED TO “APPEAR,” INSOFAR AS THEY ALREADY “ARE."

"But how did he know that he didn't love her?
I never understood how it could be so black and white. I was never sure if I loved someone. I can love a lot of things about anyone. He might look back later and realize that he did love her. He might like her more than he knows. And she might realize that she never loved him at all, even if she was sure she did. How do you know, in the moment? He'll find out that this whole crisis has nothing to do with her. 
Trust me when I say that everything is always all about you."
with love katie boland and her brilliant fiction from her site. I can't get enough.

effy.

Freddie: We’d be good together. Don’t you think?

No.

Freddie: Why?

Because I’ll break your heart.

Freddie: Maybe I’ll break yours.

Nobody breaks my heart and anyway, why would I want that?

I'm officially off the rail.
Let's get totally, totally fcked.

Everybody dances to their own boom boom

Love, love, love. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.

Why bother?

Tony: With what?

Caring about people.

Tony: You don't fool me, Effy Stonem.

Mike: Okay, so what if I don't want to give up on her? 
Rob: You don't call. 
Mike: But you said I don't call if I wanted to give up on her. 
Rob: Right. 
Mike: So I don't call either way? 
Rob: Right. 
Mike: So what's the difference? 
Rob: There is no difference right now. See, Mike, the only difference between giving up and not giving up is if you take her back when she wants to come back. But you can't do anything to make her want to come back. In fact, you can only do stuff to make her not want to come back. 
Mike: So the only difference is if I forget about her or just pretend to forget about her? 
Rob: Right. 
Mike: Well that sucks. 
Rob: Yeah, it sucks. 
Mike: So it's just like a retroactive decision, then? I mean I could, like, forget about her and then when she comes back make like I just pretended to forget about her? 
Rob: Right. Although probably more likely the opposite. 
Mike: What do you mean? 
Rob: I mean at first you're going to pretend to forget about her, you'll not call her, I don't know, whatever... but then eventually, you really will forget about her. 
Mike: Well what if she comes back first? 
Rob: Mmmm... see, that's the thing, is somehow they know not to come back until you really forget. 
Mike: There's the rub. 
Rob: There's the rub.
