People will kill you over time, and how they’ll kill you is with tiny, harmless phrases, like: ‘be realistic.’

I like people with depth, I like people with emotion, I like people with a strong mind, an interesting mind, a twisted mind, and also people that can make me smile.

 Abbey Lee Kershaw (via psych-facts)

The trouble with being a daydreamer who doesn’t say much is that the teachers at school, especially those who don’t know you very well, are likely to think you’re rather stupid. Or, if not stupid, then dull. No one can see the amazing things that are going on in your head.

The Daydreamer, Ian McEwan (via dreamwithin-adream)

She was a compulsive pessimist, always looking for the soft brown spot in the fruit, pressing so hard she created it.

Sometimes you wake up. Sometimes the fall kills you. And sometimes, when you fall, you fly.

Neil Gaiman (via kari-shma)

Words of advice from The Wolf himself. 
thiswolf:

This Wolf Mantra. Too often I see fantastic creative people that have let themselves slip into a world where they let others define what is and isn’t creative. Often it is work that seems to define what productive creative is, puts artificial limits on how we express ourselves. Sometimes that is defined by client or by budget but very often it is creative people limiting themselves. We should never let our job limit anything we do, our careers should enhance us, make us feel empowered. We work in a fantastic time, the world is bubbling with ideas and now more than ever the ability to make those ideas happen.
So if you fine yourself limited then step back and reconnect with what you define as creative. Then fine the role that allows you to be that.

I’ve always envied people who sleep easily. Their brains must be cleaner, the floorboards of the skull well swept, all the little monsters closed up in a steamer trunk at the foot of the bed.

City Of Thieves, David Benioff (via songe-creux)
