Why is it always about Orpheus turning back foolishly and never about Eurydice following him out of the Underworld, likely knowing she was doomed. That Orpheus went all this way, singing the story of their love, hopeful that he will return her to the surface and finally build their life together— but they will not. She knows her Orpheus will turn back. And yet she still follows him, all the way to the top, because the simple pleasure of seeing his back again is enough for her. Isn’t that a foolish thing to do for love?

#25% still feels like an overstatement #i am lazy as hell and yet feel tired all the time somehow 😭

Edward (Robin Ellis) proposes to Elinor (Joanna David) in the 1971 BBC adaptation of Sense and Sensibility.

"I have longed for this moment from the instant of our first meeting. Dear, dear Elinor. Would you - could you possibly -?" "No, Edward, no!" "But why?" "Well, the gravel is much too damp. We had a shower earlier this morning. There - if you must be so foolish, take that." "Oh, prudent, practical Elinor! How could anyone fail to love you?"

Edward Ferrars and Charles Bingley meet at a pub in London. One is trapped in an imprudent engagement to a fortune hunter, the other was "saved" from entering into a supposed one. They're both miserable and they both think it's the other who did the right thing.
