“A happy ending was imperative. I shouldn't have bothered to write otherwise. I was determined that in fiction anyway two men should fall in love and remain in it for the ever and ever that fiction allows, and in this sense Maurice and Alec still roam the greenwood.”

- Terminal Note (written in 1960) of Maurice by E.M Forster (written in 1914 and published in 1971)

I drew this after watching the movie. It’s not great, but I was trying out new brushes so it’s ok.

IT’S HERE!!! I’m finally done and this hyperfixation can finally end. I hope it’s as fun to read as it was to write <3

Maurice, 1987

[laurapetrie]

A ROOM WITH A VIEW (1985) Be his wife. He is already part of you. Though you never see him again, or forget his very name, George will work in your thoughts till you die. It isn’t possible to love and to part. You will wish that it was. You can transmute love, ignore it, muddle it, but you can never pull it out of you. I know by experience that the poets are right: love is eternal. When I think what life is, and how seldom love is answered by love—Marry him; it is one of the moments for which the world was made. - E. M. Forster

Quotes from the movie Maurice (1987) 2/2

When you come back, you will not be you. And I may not be I.

E.M. Forster

[spocks-got-a-glock]

When you get so irked by someone saying that "Clive and Maurice were the better romantic pairing because they truly loved each other while Alec and Maurice's relationship was based on nothing but sex" that you end up writing a small essay in a Pinterest comment section (which had to be broken up into 500 character chunks because of Pinterest's character limit).

Anyway, I actually like what I wrote so I wanted to share it here. I didn't say everything I wanted to in the exact way that I wanted to due to the word restrictions, but I think it did the job.
