Fun Literature fact.
Richard Brinsley Sheridan bought a share of Drury Lane theatre in 1776.
The theatre burned down in 1809.
Sheridan was encountered drinking a glass of wine in the street while watching the fire, he was famously reported to have said "A man may surely be allowed to take a glass of wine by his own fireside".
It that is not Fucking iconic!

Hi meet me, I am King Lear, I love flattery, I trust nice words more than true words, I always end up losing everything in the end. Don't be like me, don't be like King Lear. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

Philip Sidney writing Sonnets, Astrophil and Stella(1591) for his lady love Penelope Devereux and still getting rejected is basically the Elizabethan equivalent of me sending enthusiastic texts to my crush only to be left on read.

W. B. Yeats in his poem, Aedh wishes for the Cloths of Heaven(1899) wrote, ''I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams''.
This guy immortalised Maud Gonne in so many of his poems inspite of getting constantly rejected and I can't even get a text back? Where is the fair in this god?

Remember that Sylvia Plath in her novel The Bell Jar (1963) talked about how she constantly felt suffocated, and exactly after a month the book is published, she took her own life by suffocating herself in a kitchen with leaking gas.
This sends shivers down my spine! Sometimes they don't suffer in silence, they cry for help, and yet no one listens till its too late.

When Jane Austen in Sense and Sensibility (1811) said, "The more I know of the world, the more I am convinced that I shall never see a man whom I can really love. I require so much!" Same sis, same!

Robert Browning in Pippa Passes (1841) said, “God’s in His heaven — All’s right with the world!"
Thomas Hardy in Tess of the d'urbervilles (1891) said, "God's NOT in his heaven: All's WRONG with the world!"
Browning and Hardy are literally my two personalities talking to each other? :3

Remember reading in a newspaper "he or she" whenever the artical has to generally talk about a human being? That was apparently not the case earlier. One of the early feminists Dale Spender in 1980 talked about how masculine language is and how that promotes patriarchy, in her book, Man Made language. Now next time when you have to say feminists earlier had strong objectives and the ones today fight only for petty reasons, shut the fuck up because you are not educated on the topic. The sheer fact that women had to fight for a thing as basic as their representation in a language shows why this society needs feminism.

Ignorance did what deepest of betrayal couldn't, a soul once in search of love refused to believe in its very existence.
