when virginia woolf said “second hand books are wild books, homeless books; they have come together in vast flocks of variegated feather, and have a charm which the domesticated volumes of the library lack,”

jumpedoverthemoon

Is it just me or are in home libraries like the dreamiest thing? A little cozy room lined with shelves, full of books of all shape and color that you’ve collected over the years, with a big round window in an alcove where you can sit and sip some tea and thumb through your favorite novel and listen to the rain pattering against the glass. Thats the life

“She was the amoureuse of all the novels,

The heroine of all the plays,

The vague “she” of all the poetry books.”

Gustave Flaubert, Madame Bovary

Lestat, Rose, and Parchment for the asks

Lestat: curious, odd, hopeful, caring, defiant

Rose: hm... do I have to just pick one? I guess if I had to pick just one, right now, it would have to be 1920s America. I am absolutely in love with American history, largely because of its ‘melting pot.’ I am fascinated by nearly every culture, and America’s unique beginning just amazes me. The 1920s have everything that fascinates me when it comes to American history, the dramatic highs and lows in the transition into the 1930s, the activist culture beginning to blossom as a result of economic prosperity... really I could go on forever. There are many other periods I love, both in American history and others, but the 1920s would have to be my favorite.

Parchment: I suppose I’ve already proven I can ramble on forever about history, haha. It really depends on what’s caught my interest at the time, but currently it’s American history and, essentially, communications. I want everyone to be able to have access to information and education and one of the most important steps is making people realize that they deserve it, or even that that access can exist. I would love to combine two of my largest passions, helping people and learning, and I truly believe that this is possible.

It was the blue of legend, simply; the color that satisfies the soul like sleep.

i love the victorian era aesthetic.. .shitty ass candles and dirty streets, tweeds, carriages, ghost stories, the widespread existential panic due to newly discovered dinosaur bones and the theory of evolution

I don't know how things will go now but with God's help we have brought peace to this land of ours - a peace which will end this old strife of ours forever.

~ Michael Collins to Kitty Kiernan, December 6, 1921

how much can you change

and get away with it,

before you turn into someone else,

before it’s some kind of murder?

#hi i decided to go with the backup quote #but if they respond and say its okay to use their poem i will post it later #aesthetic #dark academia #light academia #quote #my post #not my words #light

I’m done with all of this romanticizing ‘damsel in distress,’ and wallowing in old injustices. I want more Greek mythology poems where Icarus knew what he was doing and reveled in it. I want more poems of Athena, strong and wise, the mastermind behind the brute force of Ares, a goddess of war all on her own. I want more of Artemis, not as Apollo’s sister, but as the fierce and independent huntress she is. More of Artemis’s huntresses, and tales of their adventures.

I want more. More independence, more strength, more confidence. I will no longer except anything less than might. We need to remember that Persephone is not the only myth with claws.

postcards say IM HERE. IM HERE AND I LOVE YOU. IN THIS SPACE AND TIME AND WHEREVER AND WHENEVER YOU ARE. THERE IS A SPACE BETWEEN THOSE SPACES THAT CONNECTS US AND ITS FULL OF LOVE. I’LL MEET YOU THERE.
