Cleopatra de la Mar

“If I had a flower for every time I thought of you...I could walk through my garden forever.”
― Alfred Tennyson

“It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things.”
― Leonardo da Vinci

“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

“Tell you what I don’t like about a place so goddamned orderly like this. As an artist... it’s the lines that get me. All the straight lines in the walls, on the floors, in the corners that turn into boxes—like coffins. The only way I can get rid of the boxes is to take a few drinks. Then all the lines get wavy and wiggly, and I feel a lot better about the whole world. When things are all straight and lined up this way I get morbid.”
― Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon
