Why Did We Ever Stop Doing This??

The Phantom of the Opera (2004)

And — I suppose he fell in love with the moon because she kissed his pianic fingers and shone light upon every key he played when everyone else refused to listen to his sonata.

Quoted a passage from The Aeneid and now my boyfriend thinks I'm a witch.

You are allowed

nay, encouraged to…

buy books you’ll never read

abandon books halfway through

read your favorites over and over again

read ‘easy’ books

read books you don’t totally understand

just look at the pictures

start in the middle

take notes

break spines

read the book after you saw the movie

skip the boring parts

keep books out of sentiment

bring a book everywhere

read comics

return books to the library unread

The point, my dear reader, is joy.

me, reading & learning about ancient romans & greeks on paper: :)

me, remembering they were real, conscious people with opinions, memories & fears: :|

Art is just so genuinely impressive to me like being able to sketch people from memory and paint
