fleabag (2016 - 2019) “women are born with pain built in. it’s our physical destiny—period pains, sore boobs, childbirth. we carry it within ourselves throughout our lives. men don’t. they have to seek it out. they invent all these gods and demons so they can feel guilty about things, which is something we do very well on our own.”

“show me a hero, and i’ll write you a tragedy.”

Baby Face (1933) dir. Alfred E. Green

We’ve always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known. We count these moments as our proudest achievements. But we lost all that. Or perhaps we’ve just forgotten that we are still pioneers. And we’ve barely begun. And that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us, because our destiny lies above us.

Just for the record being adrift in space with zero promise of rescue is more fun than it sounds. Food and water ran out four days ago, oxygen will run out tomorrow morning and I mean it, when I drift off I will dream about you, it’s always you.“

“Just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn’t mean we all have.” 

Jake Gyllenhaal on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert (January 16, 2019).

oh, enjoying the thrill of the chase is fine, craving the distraction of the game – i sympathise entirely.
