Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Gambler

as above (insane in the head) so below (insane in the pussy)

“There’s no such thing as innocence any more… there’s only ignorance. You think you are holding on to something pure, but you aren’t. You’re just ignorant. You are handicapped by everything you don’t yet know.”

— Eleanor Catton, The Rehearsal

…you will go home and then you will find that home is not home anymore. Then you will really be in trouble. As long as you stay here, you can always think: One day I will go home.

When I’m suffering I don’t ask for help. I’m afraid they’ll come and try To take my pain away.

Ada Limón, from “The Hurting Kind,” in The Hurting Kind

[text ID: Before my grandfather died, I asked him what sort / of horse he had growing up. He said, / Just a horse. My horse, with such a tenderness it / rubbed the bones in the ribs all wrong. / I have always been too sensitive, a weeper / from a long line of weepers. / I am the hurting kind. I keep searching for proof.]
