experience want teach
Experience teaches you how to do things you never want to do again.
views earth looks
There's nothing on earth to do here but look at the view and eat. You can imagine the result since I do not like to look at views.
sleep despair wish
I can't read or sleep. Without hope or youth or money I sit constantly wishing I were dead.
sleep gains conformity
It's terrible to allow conventional habits to gain a hold on a whole household; to eat, sleep and live by clock ticks.
time distance sleep
I take a sun bath and listen to the hours, formulating, and disintegrating under the pines, and smell the resiny hardihood of the high noon hours. The world is lost in a blue haze of distances, and the immediate sleeps in a thin and finite sun.
love positive romantic
Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.
doubt reason-why great-things
She quietly expected great things to happen to her, and no doubt that’s one of the reasons why they did.
boredom boring bores
She refused to be bored chiefly because she wasn't boring.
love life meaningful
I don't want to live. I want to love first, and live incidentally.
reading people information
People are like almanacs, Bonnie - you never can find the information you're looking for, but the casual reading is well worth the trouble.
beautiful wall hands
I don’t suppose I really know you very well - but I know you smell like the delicious damp grass that grows near old walls and that your hands are beautiful opening out of your sleeves and that the back of your head is a mossy sheltered cave when there is trouble in the wind and that my cheek just fits the depression in your shoulder.
love-you ifs
I love you, even if there isn’t any me, or any love, or even any life. I love you.
years mind body
Why do we spend years using up our bodies to nurture our minds with experience and find our minds turning then to our exhausted bodies for solace?
beautiful song philosophy
I wish I could write a beautiful book to break those hearts that are soon to cease to exist: a book of faith and small neat worlds and of people who live by the philosophies of popular songs.
