Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.
— Herman Hesse
Inspiration is a funny thing. It comes and surprises you when you least expect it and from a thing you would least expect it to be from.
(via artstarr)
Love is a temporary madness, it erupts like volcanoes and then subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion, it is not the desire to mate every second minute of the day, it is not lying awake at night imagining that he is kissing every cranny of your body. No, don’t blush, I am telling you some truths. That is just being “in love”, which any fool can do. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident.
— Louis de Bernières
I chose and my world was shaken; so what? The choice may have been mistaken, the choosing was not. You have to move on.

Gravity cannot be held responsible for people falling in love.
— Albert Einstein
I loved you, so I drew these tides of men into my hands and wrote my will across the sky in stars.
— T.E Lawrence
