—  Ralph Waldo Emerson

❝ Isn’t it odd how much fatter a book gets when you’ve read it several times? As if something were left between the pages every time you read it. Feelings, thoughts, sounds, smells, and then, when you look at the book again many years later, you find yourself there, too, a slightly younger self, slightly different, as if the book had preserved you like a pressed flower, both strange and familiar. ❞

— Cornelia Funke (via aeterne)

❝ There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at the type writer and bleed. ❞

— Earnest Hemmingway (via faeriefables)

❝ Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught. ❞
