“She was the still point of the turning world.
I never got over that girl. Never.
I loved a lot of ladies, but not like that.
That was real.” —Trip Fontaine, The Virgin Suicides (via facetiouscunt)

“One of the things I find most offensive about what people say about our music is when they say it’s depressing. The reason I find it offensive is… that—to me—implies that to suffer from depression is like being subnormal, or that it’s a stigma, which it shouldn’t be, because there are an awful lot of people that suffer from depression. And it shouldn’t be like… an ultimate swear word. I really have a problem with people who dismiss art or music on the grounds that it’s depressing, because a lot of creative power is from that feeling.”

“I don’t believe in colleges and universities. I believe in libraries because most students don’t have any money. When I graduated from high school, it was during the Depression and we had no money. I couldn’t go to college, so I went to the library three days a week for 10 years.”
—Ray Bradbury (via blua)
