“I love you. You’re deliciously uncotemporary; you belong to a mystical past and also to a very remote future. For you, time isn’t money, it’s a precious essence, delicate, full of mystery. Just to breathe with someone like you does me good.”
— Nikos Kazantzakis, tr. by Richard Howard, from “The Rock Garden,”

My art history teacher is like "there were ZERO women artists during the renaissance well there was Sofonisba but that's it" and I'm STEAMING bc there WERE more female artists during the Renaissance and I KNOW this bc I spent hours researching women artists in the Renaissance so I could figure out what to name my girl ninja turtle oc when I was 11
I may not be a pastor to replenish and cleanse your sins, but should you have any unresolved resolutions and need to vent, then I am here to bless you.
A new begining shall occur, and we must drop the weights we bring from yesterday so that tomorrow can be anew.
Your aren’t Henry Winter. Don’t beat yourself up for not reading brillant classic novels every second of the day. Real human minds need sleep and time to wander. Just because you missed your duolingo latin lesson today doesn’t mean Donna Tartt would hate you. This community is lovely, but can fuel a lot of self imposed pressure. Yes school matters, and yes, knowledge is a brilliant reason to live, but you run the risk of burning yourself out. It’s okay to rest. You are not lesser or base for taking a break.
- Having a ridiculous amount of tabs open of Wikipedia pages about ancient paintings, essays about Plato’s books and information about ivy league university’s.
- Listening to Hozier, Lana del Rey, classical music and slowed down versions of pop songs.
- Carrying notebooks, now twice the size as they were when I first bought them, filled with notes, paintings, lose papers with sketches and Latin words and their definition.
- Finishing a book and immediately starting another one.
- Staying up till sunrise while drinking tea and reading poetry.
New Renaissance by KOTY2
I just want a girlfriend and go to the library with her, discuss poetry and philosophy, have dates in cute cafes, just sit in silence and read books, cuddle while we watch old movies at 3am in the morning, visit art museums, take long walks in the park holding hands and talk about mythology. Is that really too much to ask for?
