“Sometimes it is the people no one can imagine anything of who do the things no one can imagine.”
— Alan Turing (mathematician, b. 23 June 1912)
“Each of us is born brilliant. Then we spend the rest of our lives having our brilliance buried by people, circumstances, and experiences. Eventually, we forget that we ever had genius and special talents, and our brilliance is locked away in a vault deep within. So we settle for who we are, instead of striving for who we were meant to be.”
— Simon T. Bailey
Soulmates are not your ~other half~, that’s just nonsense. You are a whole person already, not half a person. A soulmate isn’t even inherently romantic. A soulmate is just the other sock in a matched set. You’re still a whole, complete sock on your own, you are perfectly functional paired with any other sock, it’s just that it’s even better when you match. A soulmate is literally just the person who makes your soul go “!!! Same hat!!!” and wave excitedly.
i love this
I like this better than anything I’ve ever been told about soulmates

Don’t settle. Don’t settle. You are worth 100%. Not 60%. Not 75%. Don’t settle for excuses. You will find happiness and it will be so much more than you ever imagined.
People who focus on whether the glass is half full or half empty miss the point. The glass is refillable.
““It could be drugs,” I whisper to myself as I buy 37 new books with no shelf space and a tight budget. “At least it’s not drugs.””

— Ralph Waldo Emerson (born on this day in 1803)
“A good book is an education of the heart. It enlarges your sense of human possibility what human nature is of what happens in the world. It’s a creator of inwardness.”
— Susan Sontag
