Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. - Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Another excellent quote to live by.
Now, I'm not on Tumblr but I do peruse on occasion, in gluttonuous binges. During one such binge, I found Harry Potter Hipster. Now, some are hilarious and some just really caught my eye. The one below gives me the shivers - in the same way that I did when presented with that image of the charm around Hogwarts crumbling in the cinema.
I am reading Will Self's "Dorian" - about 80 pages from the end, but I've found it quite hard to work through. Self keeps trying to be too clever and he's just too verbose without any charm behind it. Then again, it might be that a lot of the late '80s/early '90s references are just absolutely breezing past me. Which makes me a little sad, but I'm getting there.
Also just realised, I have no tags for reading, only poetry, Milton and Shakespeare. Well, I will resolve that now! "lighthouses in the great sea of time" - a quote from E. P. Whiipple. Yes. That will do.
