camus was so gorgeous, wasn't him? and had such a strong personality. innocent tho, an idealistic. you can easily fall in love with him just by reading about his history.
(yes, it's one of my inspirations if you couldn't tell already!) 🤍🌧
"We must mend what has been torn apart, make justice imaginable again in a world so obviously unjust, give happiness a meaning once more..."

Søren Kierkegaard

i feel like clarice lispector broke me and saved me at the same time. viscerally affected by each sentence from 'água viva'.
“Suddenly he realizes that tomorrow will be the same, and, after tomorrow, all the other days. He is crushed by this irreparable discovery. It's ideas like this that kill one. Men kill themselves because they cannot stand them—or, if they are young, they turn them into epigrams.”
Albert Camus, “Irony”, The Wrong Side and the Right Side (1937)
When Albert Camus wrote "somebody inside of me has always tried, with all his strength, to be nobody."
i'm still on lolita, damn this book is hard to read. every page i literally have a discomfort on the way he speaks about lolita. it's so sickening! but the writing is so good, i don't even know what to say. *Fiodora thinks so too!
on the other hand i'm gonna start 'pop song' and 'a peste' today! it's gonna be i guess my forth or fifth camus. i love him sm. also, i need to finish it soon cause my uni library doesn't accept us to keep the books on vacation and semester is ending. soooo... 🤸🏻♀️
it's nice day today, very cloudy. i love it, it puts me in a great mood! 🤍🌧
