rather be dead than cool

— Ernest Hemingway, from The Complete Works; “Islands In The Stream” (via violentwavesofemotion)

i dont feel fine

Do you know the story of the Phasianidae? It’s a bird that experiences all of time in one instant. And she sings the song of love and anger and fear and joy and sadness all at once. And this bird when she meets the love of her life is both happy and sad. Happy because she sees that for him it is the beginning, and sad because she knows it is already over.

Call Me by Your Name (2017) dir. Luca Guadagnino

― Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) Clementine: I’m always anxious, thinking I’m not living my life to the fullest, taking advantage of every possibility, make sure I’m not wasting one second of the little time I have.
