Foo Fighters - These Days
“I know you all and will awhile uphold the unyoked humour of your idleness. Yet herein will I imitate the sun, who doth permit the base contagious clouds to smother up his beauty from the world, that, when he please again to be himself, being wanted, he may be more wondered at by breaking through the foul and ugly mists of vapours that did seem to strangle him. If all the year were playing and holidays, to sport would be as tedious as to work. But when they seldom come, they wished for come, and nothing pleaseth but rare accidents. So, when this loose behaviour I throw off and pay the debt I never promised by how much better than my word I am, by so much shall I falsify men’s hopes. And like bright metal on a sullen ground, my reformation, glittering o’er my fault, shall show more goodly and attract more eyes than that which hath no foil to set it off. I’ll so offend, to make offence a skill, redeeming time when men think least I will.”
—Prince Hal, Henry IV - William Shakespeare
- Person 1: Have you seen this movie?
- Person 2: I've seen gifs of all of its scenes on Tumblr, does it count?
“We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken.”
—Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment (via quote-book)
