Marina Tsvetaeva
“Beating soul and breathing blood.”
Marina Tsvetaeva, Moscow in the Plague Year: Poems
tags: poetry

Susan Sontag
“I know I’m not myself with people, but am I myself when alone? That seems unlikely, too.”
Susan Sontag, Reborn: Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963

Susan Sontag
“The most precious thing is vitality – not in any sinister Lawrentian sense, but just the will + energy + appetite to do what one wants to do + not to be ‘sunk’ by disappointments. Aristotle is right: happiness is not to be aimed at; it is a by-product of activity aimed at.”
Susan Sontag, Reborn: Journals and Notebooks, 1947-1963

Amy Lowell
“For I have time for nothing
But the endeavour to balance myself
Upon a broken world.”
Amy Lowell, The Complete Poetical Works of Amy Lowell
tags: poetry

Susan Sontag
“Did I feel all that? So much? As sounds decays into inadudibility, euphoria decays into indifference, and that is always unexpected, the way exalted feelings are weakened, undone by time.”
Susan Sontag, The Volcano Lover
