“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in that grey twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”

- Theodore Roosevelt

“The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be.”

“The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something and tell what it saw in a plain way. Hundreds of people can talk for one who can think, but thousands can think for one who can see. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy and religion, all in one.”

- John Ruskin (via lastchatwithphontaine)

Our human eyes are limited to being able to see only a tiny fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum. Thanks to our ingenuity and curiosity, we’ve developed tools to give us super-human views of the light in our universe. This website allows you to see the Milky Way in multiple wavelengths, bringing a new perspective to our already-fascinating reality.

You've been unfollowed due to your overly narcissistic posts about yourself.

I don’t want to hear about your bloody vagina for crying out loud. And who is so self obsessed they make a fuck yeah page about themselves?

Oh em gee, I’m totes crushed. But I didn’t make Fuck Yeah Delacroix; if you read my overly narcissistic posts, you’d know that.

Seriously though, I have no idea who you even are…

I wanna hear about your vagina :*

It’s funny though, because the post in question was kind of about you not wanting the focus to be on your vagina. Funny how people read one word and forget to read everything around it. <3

“The idea that Bill Gates has appeared like a knight in shining armour to lead all customers out of a mire of technological chaos neatly ignores the fact that it was he who, by peddling second-rate technology, led them into it in the first place.”

“Why do you stay in prison
when the door is so wide open?
Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking.
Live in silence.”

“Imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, ‘This is an interesting world I find myself in, an interesting hole I find myself in, fits me rather neatly, doesn’t it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!’ This is such a powerful idea that as the sun rises in the sky and the air heats up and as, gradually, the puddle gets smaller and smaller, it’s still frantically hanging on to the notion that everything’s going to be alright, because this world was meant to have him in it, was built to have him in it; so the moment he disappears catches him rather by surprise. I think this may be something we need to be on the watch out for.”

- Douglas Adams

“Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy — in fact, they are almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other”

“In the course of twenty crowded years one parts with many illusions. I did not wish to lose the early ones. Some memories are realities, and are better than anything that can ever happen to one again.”

- Willa Cather
