Exactly the Same. But not. |
Hello. My name is Lesley. I'm from Blackpool, went to Uni in Brighton, and lived in Seattle for a year. Not sure where I want to be now. I like: sleeping reading talking dancing hugging eating drinking listening wishing watching pretending avoiding internetting verbing I also like: making brownies. planning holidays. books. words. cups of tea. crumpets. the phantom tollbooth. mashed potato. my bed. cocktails. sharp cider. good beer. euphemisms. snow. sunshiney days. talking bollocks. |

Room with a View by Clay Lipsky.
I imagine the view that Clov sees from the window in Beckett’s Endgame to be a very dull, grey version of this.

Brilliant.

Notes"I imagine the feelings of two people meeting again after many years. In the past they spent some time together, and therefore they think they are linked by the same experience, the same recollections. The same recollections? That’s where the misunderstanding starts: they don’t have the same recollection; each of them retains two or three small scenes from the past, but each has his own; their recollections are not similar; they don’t intersect; and even in terms of quantity they are not comparable: one persons remembers the other more than he is remembered; first because memory capacity varies among individuals, but also (this is more painful to admit) because they don’t hold the same importance for each other."Milan Kundera - Ignorance (via unbearablelightness)

Tell Me Something
I do not care what car you drive
where you live. If you know some
one who knows someone who knows
someone. If your clothes are this
years cutting edge. If your trust
fund is unlimited. If you are A-
list B-list never heard of you
list. I only care about the words
that flutter from your mind. They
are the only thing you truly own.
The only thing I will remember
you by. I will not fall in love
with your bones and skin. I will
not fall in love with the places
you have been. I will not fall
in love with anything but the
words that flutter from
your extraordinary mind.-Andre Jordan
