I look at this and all that comes to mind is:
In the room the women come and go/talking of Michelangelo.
And if all that is meaningless, I want to be cured
Of a craving for something I cannot find
And of the shame of never finding it.
T.S. Eliot, The Cocktail Party. (via askios)
Reblogged from What Is Imperfect
I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
For hope would be hope for the wrong thing; wait without love,
For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.
Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:
So the darkness shall be the light, and the stillness the dancing.
T.S. Eliot, from “East Coker” (via liquidnight)

“Words move, music moves / Only in time; but that which is only living / can only die. Words, after speech, / reach / Into the silence.”
