“ Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. ”

“ I do not want much of a present, anyway, this year.
After all I am alive only by accident. ”
Sylvia Plath - A Birthday Present (via madamepsychosis) (via strepitupido)
“ Perché è così che ti frega, la vita. Ti piglia quando hai ancora l’anima addormentata e ti semina dentro un’immagine, o un odore, o un suono che poi non te lo togli più. E quella lì era la felicità. Lo scopri dopo, quand’è troppo tardi. E già sei, per sempre, un esule: a migliaia di chilometri da quell’immagine, da quel suono, da quell’odore. Alla deriva ”
Alessandro Baricco - Castelli di rabbia (via elisaday) (via plettrude) (via livestrong) (via fedaccia)
“ True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen. ”

“ I may still not know what I want to be when I grow up, but I do know that someday I want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. And the walls that aren’t covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. When I leave the house I will be going to a job I love, and I’ll return to a person I love. So, that’s my dream I’m working on. ”

“ There are too many ideas and things and people, too many directions to go. I was starting to believe that the reason it matters to care passionately about something is that it whittles the world down to a more manageable size. ”

“ Se gli uomini non commettessero talvolta delle sciocchezze, non accadrebbe assolutamente nulla di intelligente. ”
Ludwig Wittgenstein (via batchiara)
“ La vera gabbia è essere soli. Stai sempre a pensare a te stesso, intrappolato in una specie di vortice, tutto gira su di te, che andrebbe anche bene se sei un tipo interessante. La fregatura è che nessuno è così interessante. ”

“ I know what it’s like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can’t. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. ”

“ Don’t tease me about my hobbies. I don’t tease you about being an asshole. ”

“ Is it so bad, then, to be misunderstood? Pythagoras was misunderstood, and Socrates, and Jesus, and Luther, and Copernicus, and Galileo, and Newton, and every pure and wise spirit that ever took flesh. To be great is to be misunderstood. ”
