Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, ‘It might have been.’ - John Greenleaf Whittier, Maud Muller - Pamphlet (via larmoyante)

We don’t all see things the same way. Wisdom is learning to appreciate the view from another person’s vantage point. - Susan Gale

If I like you,

tedeezy:

I like you. And only you. No, I will not get bored of you. No, I will not lie to you. No, I will not lose feelings for you. No, I will not hurt you like someone from the past did. No, I won’t leave you for someone else. I understand these things happened before, but that doesn’t mean it’ll happen with me. If you spend most of our relationship being scared, it’ll end because you pushed me too far away. If things change, we’ll deal with it then, but until then, I’m all yours.

I like you.

Glamour, that trans-human aura or power to attract imitation, is a kind of vessel into which dreams are poured, and some vessels are simply worthier than others… A beautiful woman can turn heads but real glamour has a deeper pull… Glamour is the power to rearrange people’s emotions, which, in effect, is the power to control one’s environment. - Arthur Miller
