The Eternal Academic

[dark-romantics]

~ Emily Dickson

[eternalacademics]

οἶδα δ'ἐγὼ ψάμμου τ᾽ ἀριθμὸν καὶ μέτρα θαλάσσης,

καὶ κωφοῦ συνίημι, καὶ οὐ φωνεῦντος ἀκούω.

I know the number of the sand and the measure of the sea;

I understand the speech of the dumb and hear the voiceless.

Dates to the bookstore always result in me obsessively reorganizing the shelves.

“Say I am mad and give my madness rein To wreck itself; the worst that can befall Is but to die an honorable death.” ~Antigone~
