“Beware; for I am fearless, and therefore powerful.”

— Mary Shelley (b. 30 August 1797)

Away, away, from men and towns,

To the wild wood and the downs —

To the silent wilderness

Where the soul need not repress

Its music lest it should not find

An echo in another’s mind.

- Percy Bysshe Shelley, The Invitation

“And in the end, we were all just humans, drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness.”

To Night, Percy Bysshe Shelley

“He walked with her up the hill, her mother close behind them. But it was impossible for the two young people to keep their bodies from brushing against each other and once Apollonia stumbled and fell against him so that he had to hold her and her body so warm and alive in his hands started a deep wave of blood rising in his body. They could not see the mother behind them smiling because her daughter was a mountain goat and had not stumbled on this path since she was an infant in diapers. And smiling because this was the only way this young man was going to get his hands on her daughter until the marriage.”

when jane austen said there is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. i have no notion of loving people by halves; it is not my nature. my attachments are always excessively strong me and my big ole kind heart that has been abused many times felt that to its core
