“Listen. To live is to be marked. To live is to change, to acquire the words of a story, and that is the only celebration we mortals really know. In perfect stillness, frankly, I’ve only found sorrow.”
—Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible (via chlorion)

NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL - April 8th
“There is no use in waiting / Offer up your steps so I can climb / Show me all your figure paintings / Etched in the middle of the night”
feeling quite terrible right now
someone make me feel better
and no, i’m not sitting in my living room watching the benchwarmers and crying to casimir pulaski day

“When the newspapers were full of alarms about Iran possibly developing a nuclear bomb, Kurt sent me a copy of a very short letter he wrote to The New York Times: ‘I know of only one nation that has dropped nuclear bombs on innocent people.’”

You really do like taking photos of yourself, don’t you?
almost as much as i like being a better person than you
No Light, No Light
Florence and The Machine
Florence + the Machine - No Light, No Light
You are the hole in my head
You are the space in my bed
You are the silence in between
What I thought and what I said
