heavy & soft with love.

WE are the dust of dust. we are the apple of god’s eye. we are infinite as the universe we hold inside. WITH golden string, our universe was clothed in light. pulling at the seams: our once barren world now brims with life. THAT we may fall in love every time we open up our eyes. I GUESS space & time takes violent things, a n g r y things & makes them kind. LET there be light, let there be light, let me be r i g h t.

Stardust fell from her lips, and she bled out liquid gold. She was the entire universe wrapped up in a girl, and it was far too much to contain

The evening sun suffused the air with a golden light in which every detail was clear and nothing was dazzling, and the faces of the children and the man and woman too seemed immortal and strong and beautiful.

She had asked: What is he? A friend or an enemy? The alethiometer answered: He is a murderer. When she saw the answer, she relaxed at once. He could find food, and show her how to reach Oxford, and those were powers that were useful, but he might still have been untrustworthy or cowardly. A murderer was a worthy companion. She felt as safe with him as she’d done with Iorek Byrnison the armoured bear.

Lyra on Will, from Philip Pullman’s The Subtle Knife (1997)

One of the quotes from a book that’s stuck with me ever since I first read it - perfectly capturing Lyra’s character and atypical, but pragmatic ethics.

That’s what you are. Argue with anything else, but don’t argue with your own nature.

Finally got to see this beauty in person. Kind of bitter I couldn’t just reach out and open some of the books. The binding is so beautiful.

Memory's a poor thing to have. It's your own real hair and mouth and arms and eyes and hands I want. I didn't know I could ever love anything so much.

I will love you forever, whatever happens. Till I die and after I die, and when I find my way out of the land of the dead, I’ll drift about forever, all my atoms, until I find you again.
