“I write differently from what I speak, I speak differently from what I think, I think differently from the way I ought to think, and so it all proceeds into deepest darkness.”
—Franz Kafka (via fleurstains)
“I’ve lived through some terrible things in my life, some of which actually happened.”
—Mark Twain (via requiemforthepast)
“Can you understand? Someone, somewhere, can you understand me a little, love me a little? For all my despair, for all my ideals, for all that - I love life. But it is hard, and I have so much - so very much to learn.”
—Sylvia Plath (via fleurstains)
