breathe-hope-iin-me:
We’re such powerful human beings. We genuinely have so much power in our hands, and have the ability to change so many things. A lot of the times we don’t take advantage of this and I don’t know why. Maybe we’re scared to make a move, or comfortable with living the way we do. We’re capable of so much but we continue to hold ourselves back. We are our own worst enemies.

I Love You
crashinglybeautiful:
I love you for what you are, but I love you yet more for what you are going to be. I love you not so much for your realities as for your ideals.

When we get out of the glass bottles of our ego, and when we escape like squirrels turning in the cages of our personality and get into the forests again, we shall shiver with cold and fright but things will happen to us so that we don’t know ourselves. Cool, unlying life will rush in, and…

Date a guy who writes. Date that someone who doesn’t concern too much being the best looking man in the world. The guy who doesn’t toil for minutes or hours in front of the mirror. He spends an ample time in his room, or on a solitary bench in a public park, or on train and bus stations with his pen and notebook formulating...
