“you are the smell before rain. you are the blood in my veins.” - The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot by Brand New
It’s only after we’ve lost everything that we’re free to do anything…
-Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
not all those who wander are lost
from ‘fellowship of the ring’… the quote’s from the book and the brooch is from the movie. i love them both equally.
i love this quote because it reminds me that life is a journey, and even when i feel lost, i’m not.
“
There is always one person you
love who becomes that definition. It
usually happens retrospectively, but it
happens eventually. This is the person who
unknowingly sets the template for what
you will always love about other people,
even if some of these lovable qualities
are self-destructive and unreasonable.
The person who defines your
understanding of love is not inherently
different than anyone else; they’re
often just the person you happen to meet
the first time you really, really, want
to love someone. But that person still
wins. They win, and you lose. Because
for the rest of your life, they will
control how you feel about everyone
else.
