#i love reading about people from history who make these ridiculously prescient claims of greatness
#and everyone around them at the time is just like 'sure! whatever!'
#but then they actually DO IT
#😱
#i live for that shit
#there's a letter from fitzgerald where he says 'i shall write a novel better than any novel ever written in america'...and he DID THAT
#don't you just love it!
#i feel like some of our greatest artists (pavlova and fitzgerald being prime examples) almost HAD to be these crazy dreamers
#because there was literally no one else who was going to do it for them
#look at anna! her mom takes her to see sleeping beauty and anna's like 'mom i'm going to be the best ballerina who ever lived!'
#and her mom is like 'we are literally living below the poverty line and you've never so much as twirled but OKAY!'
#she probably thought anna would forget about it in a week
#arrested development narrator: 'anna did not forget about it in a week.'
