I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I’m awake, you know?
Ernest Hemingway (via polinomial)

Everybody’s youth is a dream, a form of chemical madness.

Maybe ever’body in the whole damn world is scared of each other.

One thing I’ve come to realize… Don’t bullshit your life away. It’s disrespectful to those who can’t live theirs anymore.
me. (via goodkindofcrazy)

To be seen, above all else. I wanted to be noticed, and the way I lived and do live has a desperate neurosis about it because of that. All humans need a degree of attention. Some people get it at the right time, when they are 13 or 14, people get loved at the right stages. If this doesn’t happen, if the love isn’t there, you can quite easily just fade away. … In a sense I always felt that being troubled as a teenager was par for the course. I wasn’t sure that I was dramatically unique. I knew other people who were at the time desperate and suicidal. They despised life and detested all other living people. In a way that made me feel a little bit secure. Because I thought, well, maybe I’m not so intense after all. Of course, I was. I despised practically everything about human life, which does limit one’s weekend activities. Of course, I was.

It’s like you come onto this planet with a crayon box. Now, you may get the 8-pak, or you may get the 16-pak, but it’s all in what you do with the crayons—the colors— that you’re given. Now don’t worry about coloring inside the lines or outside the lines. I say, color outside the lines! Color right off the page! Don’t box me in.

To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.
Joseph Chilton Pearce (via polinomial)

It’s just that I don’t want to be somebody’s crush. If somebody likes me, I want them to like the real me, not what they think I am. And I don’t want them to carry it around inside. I want them to show me, so I can feel it too.
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower (via polinomial)

I think a lot of overweight girls are hypocrites. I’m naturally tall and skinny, I eat what I want, I don’t starve myself, and I am beautiful. So why are you allowed to love your ‘curves’ but it’s wrong for me to love my ‘bones’? Why is it okay for you to call me anoerexic, but horrible for me to call you fat? If you can tell me to ‘gain weight’, why can’t I tell you to lose weight? If you can feel beautiful for being big, I can feel beautiful for being small. Get over it.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
