“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
—Pablo Neruda (via ireadintothings)
当不想看到某个东西时可以选择闭上眼睛,但当不想有某种感觉时却无法闭上自己的心。
Translation: You can close your eyes to things you don’t want to see, but you can’t close your heart to the things you don’t want to feel.

“So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do. It also won’t do in your essays.”
—Dead Poets Society (1989)
