Jean-Daniel Pollet - Le Horla (1966)

[99-luftb4llons]

-”...he still doesn’t dream about anything but sponge cake and apricot jelly.”

-”Oh, this sense of shame! -What’s the use of an encyclopedia that doesn’t answer the most obvious question about life?”

-”I can’t have nice cozy talks about reproduction!”

the Awakening of Spring quotes that are just- y e s

-“This is a Charybdis that I think everyone falls into if they’ve managed to escape the Scylla of religious superstition.” -”… a human being’s sense of shame is merely a product of his upbringing?” -”And now I’ve come, I don’t know how, and I’m supposed to be responsible for not having stayed away.”

I’ve only analyzed the first few scenes, i swear I’ll add more-

“I imagine half-closed eyelashes, half-open lips, and Turkish draperies.- I don’t believe in grand emotions.”

-Hansy Rilow, Spring Awakening 1891

Currently writing a short analysis on Hans and Ernst, their relationship and general outlook on the world is rather interesting, so if anyone wants, I can post it on here when I’m done :D

Fragment 105 (a) ~ from Sappho

[99-luftb4llons]

Academia for Political Science Students

getting into heated debates. practicing speeches with nothing but the rain outside your window for an audience. reading ancient political philosophy and hoping that you will go down in history for your own writings. being completely oblivious to the passing of time as you write about injustice and how to solve it. getting involved in your school community. going to endless meetings and making connections where you can. spending hours at the library, studying and writing because it’s so important for you to absorb knowledge to back up what you know. dreaming of internships in important cities and learning how your government works. being overwhelmed with knowledge and passion for what you study because you really do want to make a difference, and one day you will.

thank you to @caprio.mike (a king) on instagram for working with me on this!

I dare not lift my eyes by night or day. -Now that I have grasped the bar I shall swing up on it. That natural consequence will be that I shall break my neck if I fall.
