methrowrockTumblr is filled with so many beautiful, hard-hitting and poignant quotes that I can never, for the life of me, hope to spout. It is also stuffed to the brim with wondrous, haunting pictures that grate on your consciousness and howl for your utmost attention. Why are some people just so brilliant? It is such a terrible feeling to be split between fervent admiration and burning self-loathing. Admiration for the literary genius of some, and of course, the purest distillate of loathing for yourself, you who cannot, and will not be able to, emulate the talent of others. I'm not about to break down and whimper at the unfairness of it all. Nah, I'm too lazy for that. So what have I morphed into? Frankly, a copycat. The tumblr system is a wonderfully convenient way to conjure up some street cred. See something quirky? Heart it. Read something that articulates the marquee in your heart, but fleshes it out even more vividly? Reblog it and revel in the hushed awe of the ignorant at your quilted coolness. It is not a thing to be ashamed of; it is a perfectly logical way of life. Nothing in this world is original anyway. What we are is a unique blend of the innovations and inspirations of others. Everyone borrows influence from everyone else, but it is the precise permutation of interests and passions that define us as an individual. So yeah, I'm not a creative or artistic person, but that doesn't mean that I cannot be moved by dolled up landscapes and a beaded chain of pretty words strung together. Therefore, this is a collection of the loveliest quotes and pictures I found on tumblr thus far:
i like clouds that are bulbous and moulded. it gives them weight, it gives them gravity, it gives them life, and it is nice to know that there are living, breathing things up there in the sky that look over us with infinite benign wisdom.
"What I want is to be needed. What I need is to be indispensable to somebody. Who I need is somebody that will eat up all my free time, my ego, my attention. Somebody addicted to me. A mutual addiction." - Chuck Palahnuik
"I’ll go out there and make my mistakes. I’ll fall down, get hurt, cry, laugh, love, and get back up. I’ll stand on the highest mountaintop and go into the deepest caverns. I’ll roam across the world, visit the moon and swim in outer space. I’ll let my imagination run wild and let my spirit soar. Why? Because when my life flashes before my eyes in those final moments, I want to have something worthwhile to watch, with plenty of love and laughter, good times and bad. I don’t want to regret a thing and I plan not to. Remember, it’s not usually the things you do that you regret, it’s the things you don’t do and leave unsaid. Laugh out loud. Cry in the rain. Love with all your heart and soul. Get hurt. Tell the truth. Go crazy. But never forget that you only get one shot. One shot at this day, one shot at this minute. One shot at this age. One shot at life. So make sure your life is one you will enjoy watching in your final moments." - Anna Floyd
