“I don’t want dainty moments of insight. I want everything and I want it now.”

And any small moments of intense, flaring beauty such as this morning’s will be utterly forgotten, dissolved by time like a super-8 film left out in the rain, without sound, and quickly replaced by thousands of silently growing trees.

“You see, when you’re middle class, you have to live with the fact that history will ignore you. You have to live with the fact that history can never champion your causes and that history will never feel sorry for you. It is the price that is paid for day-to-day comfort and silence. And because of this price, all happinesses are sterile; all sadnesses go unpitied.”

i wanna read more but i’ve had a migraine for two straight days and i don’t feel like i’d appreciate it as much as i should if i read it with a clear head yknow?

this is really fucking good. i’m shocked i’m as into it as i am

bit in one ear out the other but it’s so compelling i don’t really care

i can’t say... having nearly 200 pages of a 416 page book being set-up and introduction is a real money move. ready to be proven wrong but this ain’t cuttin it

this is... p fuckign engaging. i’m really into it

not loving this but can see how it’s shaping up to be cute
