Anton Chekhov, from The Complete Works of Anton Chekhov; “The Darling,”
'On that drive back to Linfield, you asked me all these questions about what I liked and what I hated, and I don't know. It just felt like you really wanted to know.' 'Of course I did,' I say. He nods. 'I know. You asked me who I was, and - it was like the answer came out of nowhere. Sometimes it feels like I didn't even exist before that. Like you invented me.'

"Heaven only knows why one loves it so, how one sees it so, making it up, building it round one, tumbling it, creating it every moment afresh... In people's eyes, in the swing, tramp, and trudge; in the bellow and the uproar; the carriages, motor cars, omnibuses, vans, sandwich men shuffling and swinging; brass bands; barrel organs; in the triumph and the jingle and the strange high singing of some aeroplane overhead was what she loved; life; London; this moment in June."
art: Stanley Cursiter, "Apple Green" (1925)
quote: Virginia Woolf, Mrs Dalloway (1925)

one of my worst writing sins is abusing my power to create compound words. i cannot write the sentence "The sun shone as bright as honey that afternoon." no. that's boring. "The sun was honey-bright that afternoon" however? yes. that sentence is dope as fuck. i do not care if "honey-bright" is a word in the english dictionary. i do not care if the sentence is grammatically correct. i will not change. i will not correct my erred ways. the laws of the english language are mine.
