"The Ocean Looked Dead Too, Dead Gray Waves Hissing Mordantly Along The Beach, Which Was Gray And Dead-looking

"The ocean looked dead too, dead gray waves hissing mordantly along the beach, which was gray and dead-looking itself."

John Knowles, "A Separate Peace"

"But poetry had always appealed to her, Even in its broken thoughts and strange lines and shifts and flows It sang to her."

I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.

Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland (via lostin-fp-wonderland)

"And she thought home might not be a place or a human but a life, An emotion. She saw it in the lights of an empty theatre, In the floorboards of a creaky stage and the hills made of lights and shadows, sharp as knives. She dreamt in dimmers, in light cues gently coming up like sunrises of brilliant red and blue and deep purple; In sound cues and the quiet 'go!' followed by the thunder of a blooming flower."
