“Look, I want to love this world as though it’s the last chance I’m ever going to get to be alive and know it.”

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
- Robert Frost, The Road Less Travelled

rainy days, good books, coffee, tea, cold weather, autumn season, sweaters, the smell of pastries or baked goods, sunsets and sunrises, gorgeous buildings, and libraries with high ceilings.

Liking Dead Poets Society means watching Dr. House because Robert Sean Leonard is in it and discovering that he’s also gay in this one

Some of my favorites from @ladysansalannister!
Hope is a sword with no hilt// In another universe //What if I had not opened the door// All I ever asked of you// You are a great person but// In the darkness// Missing you is like// When they put you in the ground// I am more longing than woman// When they put you in the ground// All good things left with you// Grief is so heavy// So this is life//You can talk to the dead but// There is something rotten// I'm all sharp edges// I survived before you

Random Dead Poets Headcanons
i love my silly poet boys so much.
Neil is REALLY REALLY good with kids. They just hang off him. In comparison, kids start crying at the sight of Charlie.
Todd loves chocolate, I mean who doesn’t? But Todd keeps a little bowl of Hershey kisses under his bed for when he has bad days.
Speaking of Todd, he keeps every single journal he’s ever written in. After Neil’s passing, his mother was kind enough to let Todd take a couple of Neil’s journals.
Mr. Keating is an EXCELLENT cook. like stellar. he invites the boys over for dinner sometimes and they are always asking for seconds.
Neil called Mr. Keating Dad once and panicked so much he almost started crying. Like he was stuttering all over himself until Keating gave him a hug, held him tight, and told him it was okay.
Pitts really enjoys those MGM musicals. He can’t dance to save his life but the dancing is just so fanciful and magical to him. His favorite dancer is Gene Kelly.
Charlie and Knox have something similar to "The Slap Bet" from How I Met Your Mother. Don't ask how its started. All anyone knows is that Knox has four slaps left, and Charlie has two.
Meeks was, and will always be, a vegetable hater. Specifically, broccoli. Mostly for the fact of when he was in middle school, his Mom still made him eat it, despite having braces
Neil does not like to drink, he thinks beer, whiskey, and scotch all taste nasty to him. He drinks them to look cool, though.
When Neil does drink, he’s a lightweight. And a clingy drunk.
Cameron is a whiz at Poker. The Poets all swear he counts their cards but he’s just got a really good Poker face.
Knox keeps a collection of Jane Austen novels. His favorite is Sense & Sensibility.
Occasionally at Poet meetings, Neil grabs a copy of whatever play they’re doing at Henley and makes the poets read the roles. Last time, Charlie was Juliet and Cameron was Romeo. Charlie nearly killed Cameron himself.
Neil is an excellent swimmer.
Pitts is one of those guys who enjoys really disgusting food combinations. He quite enjoys pickles and peanut butter together. With a Chocolate Milkshake.
Todd doesn’t like thunderstorms. He hides it from Neil one night and wakes Neil up while he’s crying. From then on, Neil stays up with him when it storms, reading to him or talking just to take his focus off of it.
Chris cannot sing. At all. Chris is a really vocal drunk so she’s always the first one to ask who’s up for karaoke.
Charlie is a terrible cook. He burns everything he touches. Keating has tried to teach him some lessons, but to no avail.
Knox really likes TV westerns like Gunsmoke and The Rifleman and Rawhide. He looks like a kid in a candystore everytime he watches one. Pitts is the only one who will watch them with him.
Charlie lost a bet to Todd once and Charlie ended up having to shave his eyebrows. Todd called him “Baldy” for the duration that they were gone.
Meeks does not like blood. It either makes him want to vomit or pass out. Or both, in no particular order.
One time, Charlie had to go to the hospital for a serious case of pneumonia. Out of all the poets who were distraught, Cameron hurt the most. Suddenly, their dorm was too quiet. When he came back, Cameron threatened to kill him if he ever did it again. That’s when Charlie and him created a silent truce.
Todd has a pile of unread books on his nightstand. Yeah, he’s one of those people. It’s okay, I am too.
Todd has a dog at home named Lucky. Lucky is his pride and joy. He’s a Jack Russell Terrier.
The Poets once tried to Parent Trap Keating with their school librarian. It worked out for a few months.
