But the beautiful night, the garden, every bush, every leaf, even the white palings, even the stars, were conspirators too. So bright was the moon that the flowers were bright as by day; the shadow of the nasturtiums, exquisite lilylike leaves and wide-open flowers, lay across the silvery verandah.
Katherine Mansfield, from "At the Bay" in Stories by Katherine Mansfield

Darling, darling I love you so— today seems like Easter, and I wish we were together walking slow thru the sunshine and the crowds from Church—everything smells so good and warm, and your ring shines so white in the sun—like one of the church lillies with a little yellow dust on it—we ought to be together in the Spring—it seems made for us to love in —
Zelda Fitzgerald, in a letter to Scott Fitzgerald, written c. March 1919

Honestly? Shoutout to those of you who are completely fucking lost in life. Those who don’t know what they want to do with life. Those who are stuck in a certain part of life and can’t get out. Those who are reaching for dreams they feel are impossible to reach. Those who feel like they’re accomplishments are being overlooked. Those who feel like their enough just isn’t enough. It is. You can make it. You will make it. There is an opening at the end of the tunnel.

Spring and Summer makes me think of that part of Marie Antoinette 2006 when Marie and her court are at Petit Trianon, wearing those milkmaid dresses, collecting strawberries and reading in a little boat.

"Aphrodite," I pleaded to the moon drenched night sky "Tell me"; if love is meant to heal, then why does it destroy those who choose it?" From somewhere beyond the clouds, I heard the Goddess laugh. And I knew.

It is more natural to me, lying down. Then the sky and I are in open conversation, and I shall be useful when I lie down finally: then the trees may touch me for once, and the flowers have time for me.
Sylvia Plath, excerpt of "I am Vertical"
