― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Gentle Spirit

Sometimes I wish I could reach into my memory and erase the part where I fell in love with you, not because it wasn’t beautiful, but because it hurts too much to remember something that doesn’t belong to me.

falling madly in love with a woman after telling her (and her mother) to her face that she is remarkably similar to her brother in every way is really just all around incredible behaviour Razumikhin no one is doing it like you do

r/dostoevsky looking like a bunch of confused occultists is my favorite thing

[museumofishq]

Sometimes I catch myself dreaming of things that could never happen– like moving the stars to spell your name, or turning clouds into a scarf to keep you warm. I imagine raindrops as tiny kisses falling just for you, and every time I hold your hand, I feel like I’m writing a love letter without words. I know I can't really do any of that… but I wish I could. Because love makes you want the impossible. If I had the power, I’d give you the whole sky. I’d make the universe shine just for you. I’d make your name mean “love” itself. It might sound silly, maybe even crazy... but that’s what love does–it makes you a beautiful kind of fool. And if loving you makes me that fool, then I never want to be anything else.

[antleredheretic]

I don’t think a lot of people would understand how I am loving the nature and not the world I belong to and how much I love everything
