verba-vitae:
If the sun exploded, we wouldn’t know for 8 minutes and 20 seconds. Light and gravity would take that long to reach us. Then we’d vaporize.
I appreciate the people posting/reblogging cool things on my dashboard, and also appreciate the people who happen to see or to be following here. I started this mainly to get used to English or to look out the world wide window, then it has brought me many nice natural things which sustain me. Nothing but just got to say.

I would encourage you all to stop listening to inspiring quotes and to stop obsessing over interesting photographs that you didn’t take. I would also encourage you to live some of your life yourself and form your opinions and feelings on those experiences, rather than the experiences of people you do not know who you admire. Also, for you poets and musicians, I’d encourage you to...

I’m not a big fan of this marriage deal. It’s not the institute itself, but what it does to people. It makes stupid people get together and form teams. Well, I’ll tell you what. Just because you found somebody who agrees with your stupidity, it does mean you aren’t stupid anymore.
Marriage = Stupidity in teams.

May I know your first name? For it is very lonely out here, and this world is made out of bricks and bytes, and we are but sparks in the digital stratosphere.

You
ifyouretheluckiest:
In the words “I love you” I believe the most important word is You. The word ‘love’ is tossed around so easily. People use it to describe their favorite food one minute and then the next use it to describe their feelings toward the most important people in their lives. The ‘you’, on the other hand, signals out one person from billions. It points out that ONE person who...

WatchJapan: A story of Love and Hate
“Because I need her. It’s not for history. It’s not for life. She is my life. You’ll know what I mean when you get old.”
Japan is ‘technologically’ the first world, but ‘mentally’ it is a third world nation. I remember an english teacher telling me when I first arrived. ‘The problem with the Japanese...

“There are those who are made for living and those who are made for loving.”
– Albert Camus - The Myth of Sisyphus (via christiankeyes)
What a loser. Lesbians are taking over Saturday night. They own it. Cats are so silly. They don’t think about the future at all. No planning whatsoever. I envy them, therefore I’m a sinner. Camus would think this absurd.

Edgar Allan Poem, "Sonnet-Silence"
bluefeathernotes:
There are some qualities- some incorporate things, That have a double life, which thus is made A type of that twin entity which springs From matter and light, evinced in solid and shade. There is a two-fold Silence- sea and shore- Body and soul. One dwells in lonely places, Newly with grass o’ergrown; some solemn graces, Some human memories and tearful lore, Render him...
The Lake
yingyangtheory:
In spring of youth it was my lot To haunt of the wide world a spot The which I could not love the less- So lovely was the loneliness Of a wild lake, with black rock bound, And the tall pines that towered around. But when the Night had thrown her pall Upon that spot, as upon all, And the mystic wind went by Murmuring in melody- Then- ah then I would awake To the terror of the lone...

I’m walking the way through the dead There are coming only sounds of blues You keep me here on this secret bed To sleep alone, all is out of truth I never got out of the dark There’s a road he surrendered We seek a light or just a lie We wear the cross with a sword
