"Why is love rich beyond all other possible human experiences and a sweet burden to those seized in its grasp? Because we become what we love and yet remain ourselves."

Martin Heidegger, in a letter to Hannah Arendt.

And you ask me, "what love is?"

"Love means that you are enough for me,

And that I'll never get enough of you."

-Nizar Qabbani

I've realised that my absence isn’t really felt, nor my presence necessary. I am a choice that wasn’t made, and I can’t be mad at that. I guess I can be upset, but only inwardly. Only quietly, to myself. Let it be. You can’t change what you mean to someone.

"I ran from love because I knew it would destroy me."

-Franz Kafka

"I ran into love because I needed to destroy who I used to be."

-Fyodor Dostoevsky

[luckystarinsky]

Give me a daughter with your stubborn heart, or your even temper. Give our children your dark-bright eyes, or your enchanted smile. So that even when we are gone, the world will find within them all of the reasons why I loved you

"You think I'm not a goddess?

Try me.

This is a torch song. Touch me and you'll burn."

"How do I say I miss you in a way that'll make your heart ache as much as mine does"

~Mahmoud Darwish

"He knew me by heart. It infuriated me that he knew me by heart."

Notes from Underground by Fyodor Dostoevsky

[omgsen]

I love talking nonsense with you and I hope that we can talk nonsense with each other for the rest of our lives.

[luckystarinsky]

The thought of her gave me such a continual anguish that I could no more forget her than an aching tooth. It was involuntary, hopeless, compulsive. For years she had been the first thing I remembered when I woke up, the last thing that drifted through my mind as I went to sleep, and during the day she came to me obtrusively, obsessively, always with a painful shock.

Donna Tartt, The Goldfinch

[luckystarinsky]

"I simply have to endure and endure your existence in the world, and find a way not to be stained by you again."

–montmartre

[luckystarinsky]

"The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them."

Turkish Proverb

"Yes, there is something uncanny, demonic and fascinating in her."

- Leo Tolstoy, from 'Anna Karenina'

[luckystarinsky]

"love is so short, forgetting is so long"

Pablo Neruda
