“If you give love, you lose love.”
– Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet, trans. Margaret Jull Costa (via proustitute)
I should only keep my eyes on books.
One girl is constantly on my mind. The only girl who actually cared and worried for me, gave me rides home, took me out to the movies and to lunch. Then I treat her “like dirt”, to use her own words. I should seek happiness not within people, merely my work and my thoughts so that I may be alone and no longer lonely.

Today was the day that my Grandfather, Father, and I buried the ashes of my uncle who passed earlier this year. On the way to the cemetery, my father asked me to hold his ashes. It was during those moments that “it” hit me. I was holding in my lap, within a container held in a bag, my uncle. A life who once was, but is now reduced to nothing but a paper bag. It was then that I was...

Humans are animals.
1. As evolved creatures, we obviously have generalized morals of what we think is good and bad. Take away everything that we know and create a world completely without any bias of any kind. Take away our civilizations, our towns and cities, and sophistication. What are then if everything is stripped away from us? Wild animals. As wild animals, we are instinctive, as we know other wild animals...
