I am homesick for the home it once was. The home before I left. This sweetness doesn't suit me anymore. I miss the chaos that once hit these walls. The chaos that created the holes on the doors and the pain in this aching heart.

At present all your actions must be animated by one aim - namely, to bring everything down with a crash: the State as well as its moral standards. We alone will be left, we who have prepared ourselves beforehand to take over the government: the intelligent we shall bring over to our side, and the fools we shall use to carry us on their shoulders. You must not be shy of that. We must re-educate a generation to make it worthy of freedom. We shall have many thousands of Shatovs to deal with.

Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Devils (1871) | Magarshack translation, Part III, “A Very Busy Night” 6.1. After the murder of Shatov, Peter acknowledges the violence an intellectual vanguard must commit. Ends and means.

Dostoevsky’s notebook

[modern-wilde]

The tragedy for the boys who like girls like me is you can only watch us change. You can't stop us from changing. You'll at times feel helpless seeing us becoming someone you didn't fall in love with. But that's us. We change. I hope u you're able to love us through our multiple metamorphosis and not every one is growth. But I hope there are some men out there who can love girls who are like me. As constant as the change.

“I love mankind, he said, "but I find to my amazement that the more I love mankind as a whole, the less I love man in particular.”
