“Being born a woman is an awful tragedy. Yes, my consuming desire to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, bar room regulars—to be a part of a scene, anonymous, listening, recording—all is spoiled by the fact that I am a girl, a female always in danger of assault and battery. My consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstrued as a desire to seduce them, or as an invitation to intimacy. Yet, God, I want to talk to everybody I can as deeply as I can. I want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night.”

— Sylvia Plath

Being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared. Being brave means you are scared, really scared, badly scared, and you do the right thing anyway.

— Neil Gaiman, Coraline

Oscar Wilde Quotes I Geek Over

Everything in the world is about sex except sex.  Sex is about power.

The world is a stage, but the play is badly cast.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

I can resist everything except temptation.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

The truth is rarely pure and never simple.

Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.
