friendly reminder that i have a big heart and i am trying my best

After Dark, Haruki Murakami

—Virginia Woolf, "Mrs. Dalloway"

'people have always been people' goes for simple human compassion & humor but only if it also means understanding that historical people have always been as complex and nuanced and innovative as they are now. their food and clothing and language and tools, particularly of ordinary people, however different than you're used to, should not be assumed to represent cultural inferiority or that those people had inferior tastes or intelligence or capacity for feeling than you do

"I wish I had done everything on earth with you."

-F. Scott Fitzgerald

-Painting by Ron Hicks

"Delay", Leonard Cohen

i think we as modern humans have a tendency to forget that historical people were also humans who had thoughts and feelings and dreams just like we do
