robinolivia:

Like you I
love love, life, the sweet smell
of things, the sky-
blue landscape of January days.

And my blood boils up
and I laugh through eyes
that have known the buds of tears.
I believe the world is beautiful
and that poetry, like bread, is for everyone.

And that my veins don’t end in me
but in the unanimous blood
of those who struggle for life,
love,
little things,
landscape and bread,
the poetry of everyone.

- Roque Dalton

““That’s a stupid question. You’re a smart girl. How could you want to write that? Being a gossip reporter just isn’t a respectable job. It’ll chew you up and spit you out. Why don’t you work at — what’s that news agency — Roybers? Reuters. Yeah, sorry, I’ve been drinking. What about writing for a blog? Then you can write about what you want or care about.””

- Kim Cattrall, aka “Samantha,” to a Page Six reporter who asked her to confirm whether she’d had a bikini wax before the premiere of Meet Monica Velour. (via dailyintel)

The Art of Letting Go

Sun, 02 Jan 2011 14:15:33 -0500

sincesheleft:

The art of letting go is a hard one to master. It doesn’t come naturally my way. It flies in my brain, spinning round ever faster, and clings to my arm, begs to stay. But its pleas and its cries I now recognize as lies as I pull ever firmly away. For ahead through these woods waits for me something good, or so I conceive as I pray.
