There are worlds out there where the sky is burning, and the sea’s asleep, and the rivers dream; people made of smoke and cities made of song. Somewhere there’s danger, somewhere there’s injustice, and somewhere else the tea’s getting cold.

— Doctor Who  •  1963 -

KATE SHARMA + ANTHONY BRIDGERTON “If you say she is the one in whose presence you cannot properly think, or even… or even breathe. If you say you feel that feeling: the one that makes it impossible to look away from them at any given moment. When your body and soul feel as if they could burst into flames whenever the two of you are near. When all you are able to do in their presence is to fight the urge to lean forward and… and touch their lips with yours.”

I wouldn’t say ‘When Harry Met Sally’ is my favorite movie in the world, but it pinpointed something that everyone connects to: the I-didn’t-know-I-was-in-love-with-my-best-friend thing. That obviously comes from Emma. Jane Austen pinpointed it in the Emma-Mr. Knightley relationship. It’s been used successfully as a thematic problem in two people’s lives in a lot of stories, and that’s really a testament to Jane Austen’s observation of the romantic human condition. /… / I think everyone has had that best friend where you just argue, you do everything together, and years go by and you wonder if you should have kissed that person. And I think that’s why ‘When Harry Met Sally’ exists, because of Knightley and Emma—and ‘Reality Bites’ with Winona Ryder and Ethan Hawke. That’s a totally Mr. Knightley/Emma relationship. /… / The movie is very much supposed to play into everyone’s memory of that best friend that maybe they should have kissed. — Autumn De Wilde

A Movie For Every Year I’ve Been Alive ↳ STARDUST (2007) dir. Matthew Vaughn

My heart… it feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it doesn’t belong to me anymore. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I’d wish for nothing in exchange - no gifts. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.
