There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness in the proportion. Edgar Allen Poe (via tiredofbeingsexy)
To get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.”
― Mark Twain
To laugh often and much; To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. — Ralph Waldo Emerson (via themixedtape-cm)
