Sometimes I see pretty girls with creepy looking guys and I’m just like why are you dating a pedophile
“I do not believe that just because you’re opposed to abortion, that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed. And why would I think that you don’t? Because you don’t want any tax money to go there. That’s not pro-life. That’s pro-birth. We need a much broader conversation on what the morality of pro-life is.”
—Sister Joan Chittister, Catholic Nun (via timehasflewn)
“As much as I love the internet, I’m happiest when I’m writing.”

- Mom: You're watching ANOTHER episode of that vampire show?
- Me: I'm not just watching mom, I'm doing research.
- Mom: For...
- Me: It's a surprise.
- *long silence*
- Mom: You're writing more fan fiction, aren't you?
- Me: I have no idea what you're talking about now please leave me alone you're distracting me from my studies.
“Don’t bother telling me that the man of my dreams will love me for me. No, he’ll love me for me when he’s known me for at least four months. I’ve dated some real quirkmasters, but if I’d found out about the lack of passport, the metal music, and the veganism on the first night, you can rest assured those romances would have never happened. You may call me close-minded, but I prefer to think of myself as a normal, scrutinizing product of society. And I would like to date someone who shares that background.”

“This is for all the people I’ll never meet. This is for the person I might have kissed had I taken a different subway line on Saturday and the person I might have been if that boy hadn’t broken my mother’s teenage heart. This is for the people I would have loved if last winter hasn’t been so cold and for the city I would have called home if I had written haikus on napkins and carried pens in dress pockets and in the knots of my hair. This is for who I was, who I am, who I might be. This is for you.”

“If you missed me saying it, I miss you.”

“Close some doors today. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because they lead you nowhere.”
—Paul Coelho (via seeingdark-feelinglight)
“How much I missed, simply because I was afraid of missing it.”
—Paulo Coelho, Brida (via anditslove)
“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don’t get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can’t do anything, don’t get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it’s ready to come undone. You have to figure it’s going to be a long process and that you’ll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

“I find it so much easier to be creatively free at night. Daytime is for sleeping. Nighttime is the best time for making art. The later at night it gets the further into another world you go.”
—Mark Ryden (via atlantic-sky)
Sometimes when L and I say good-bye to each other,
it’s like one of us is moving across the country, not two hours away.
