I'm starting a book club.
I am thoroughly sick of seeing five million Glee posts on my dash.
"Were I to fall in love, indeed, it would be a different thing; but I have never been in love ; it is not my way, or my nature; and I do not think I ever shall."
-Emma
“You’re growing up. Maybe that’s it…Sometimes I think the world tests us more sharply then, and we turn inwards and watch ourselves with horror. Bur that’s not the worst. We think everybody is seeing into us. Then dirt is very dirty, and purity is shining white…it will be over. Wait only a little while and it will be over. That’s not much relief to you because you don’t believe it, but it’s the best I can do for you. Try to believe that things are neither so good nor so bad as they seem to you now. Yes, I can help you. Go through the motions. Sam Hamilton said that. Pretend it’s true and maybe it will be. Go through the motions. Do that.”
—East of Eden, John Steinbeck (via phoebe—weatherfield)
That awkward moment when you finish your test early and you don’t want to be the first one to hand it in so you wait for someone else to do it first…
