I could not live in any of the worlds offered to me—the world of my parents, the world of war, the world of politics. I had to create a world of my own, like a climate, a country, an atmosphere in which I could breathe, reign, and recreate myself when destroyed by living. That, I believe, is the reason for every work of art.
Anaïs Nin, from The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. V: 1947-1955

Is it just me or are the new tumblr users convinced there's a penalty of some kind for using this site like it's meant to be used?

i wonder how it felt for Mary to look at Jesus and see her own features. how it felt to see the Messiah with your nose and chin, or your same taste in food, or even certain speaking habits/turns of phrase. what is it like to see the Savior of the world through pieces of you.

I've noticed that people have started spreading the 1992 Good Omens script around. Please don't. If you've got it up, please take it down. There's a mess of serious and real legalities involved, and I don't want to have to start being a dick and asking for copyright takedowns and all of that, and I don't want to have to regret letting it out into the world. Just take it down, unshare, delete links. Thank you.
