I am on holiday. I shouldn’t be finding so much time to blog stuff,
and I’m not sure why I’ve suddenly felt the need to blog so much. Maybe
because I have neglected my blog lately and maybe because I think it
will help my writing. Maybe because I think I haven’t done enough
writing this term and am trying to compensate and keep my mind buzzing,
or maybe because I have nothing better to do at night in my
grandparents house…Whatever.
The point of this entry is that
I was looking through my travel notebook and found some quotes that I
had made a note of a while back. They may be of interest…
‘…how
delightful other people’s emotions were! – much more delightful than
their ideas…One’s own soul, and the passions of one’s friends – those
were the fascinating things in life.’
‘Beauty is a form of
Genius…as it needs no explanation. It is one of the great facts of the
world, like sunlight, or springtime, or the reflection in dark waters
of that silver shell we call the moon.’
‘It is said that passion makes one think in a circle.’
