Mary Oliver, from “Summer Morning.” [ID in alt text]

Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of understanding.

Plato, The Republic (via theliteraryjournals)

“What happened to John? Haven’t seen him for a long time.”

“Oh... he 2016′d last year...”

Just...this year is snatching everybody up. Fuck.

I am cool, calm, and collected....hmph.
