theparisreview:

“I used to read an awful lot. Then I found that I had a lot of information and very little knowledge. I couldn’t learn from reading. I was doing something else by reading, just filling up this hopper full of information, but it was undigested information. I used to think the more intelligence you had, the more knowledge you had, but it’s not true. Look at Bill Buckley; he uses his intelligence to further his own prejudices.

“Why one reads is important. If it’s just for escape, that’s all right, it’s like taking junk, it’s meaningless. It’s kind of an insult to yourself. Like modern conversation—it’s used to keep people away from one another, because people don’t feel assaulted by conversation so much as silence. People have to make conversation in order to fill up this void. Void is terrifying to most people. We can’t have a direct confrontation with somebody in silence—because what you’re really having is a full and more meaningful confrontation.”—Marlon Brando, Playboy, 1979

Lace Aviator Sunglasses | Studs & Pearls

I saw a packet of nail decals today and thought - hmmm, am I too old to wear these?! After some thought I decided I probably was and so I passed. But this DIY is so clever and simple that I think I need to go back tomorrow and buy them to decorate my sunnies!

Brilliant.

The Ultimate Guide to Writing Better Than You Normally Do:

DON’T PROCRASTINATE

Procrastination is an alluring siren taunting you to Google the country where Balki from Perfect Strangers was from, and to arrange sticky notes on your dog in the shape of hilarious dog shorts. A wicked temptress beckoning you to watch your children, and take showers. Well, it’s time to look procrastination in the eye and tell that seafaring wench, “Sorry not today, today I write.”

15syllableverse:

Die Slowly… by Pablo Neruda

He who becomes the slave of habit,
who follows the same routes every day,
who never changes pace,
who does not risk and change the color of his clothes,
who does not speak and does not experience, dies slowly.
He or she who shuns passion,
who prefers…

"He probably was. Your problem is you don’t understand what that word means. People think a soul mate..."

Mon, 03 Sep 2012 00:55:56 -0400

“He probably was. Your problem is you don’t understand what that word means. People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soulmate is a mirror, the person that shows you everything that’s holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you will ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with your soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then they leave. And thank God for it.”

- Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat, Pray, Love (via thisisnottosay)

The epigraph of Junot Díaz’s new book, This Is How You Lose Her, comes from Sandra Cisneros’s “One Last Poem for Richard” and is a knife into the meat of my poor damned sentimental heart.

“Praise the headache that tells my body
I am dehydrated, tired, or stressed.
Praise the stress which tells me
I am busy, I need to slow down.
Praise the work that keeps me busy,
puts food on the table,
money in the bank account,
and promptly out again to pay the bills.
Praise the food on my table
the raw food breakfast porridge,
the vegan corn chowder
the worker-owned beer.
It costs more money
but it keeps my heart
from crying out in pain.
Praise the pain that tells my body
this can’t be all there is.”

“Memory was that woman on the train. Insane in the way she sifted through the dark things in a closet and emerged with the most unlikely ones- a fleeting look, a feeling. The smell of smoke. A windscreen wiper. A mother’s marble eyes. Quite sane in the way she left huge tracts of darkness veiled. Unremembered.”

- Arundhati Roy, The God of Small Things (via inherwar)
