perpetually torn between:

taking classic literature seriously and over analysing every detail so that I can deeply understand themes, motifs and references and absorb every poetic quote into my being OR treating classics as if they were just silly little stories about silly little gay people doing the most weird, unhinged and out of context shit ever (which they are)

Humanity takes itself too seriously. It is the world's original sin. If the cave-man had known how to laugh, History would have been different.

i need a friend group that consists of the narcissistic blond twink who sold his soul via a painting of himself, a miserable gay artist (dead) who is in love with said blond twink, and a corrupting nobleman who didn't get the memo that it's okay to shut the fuck up sometimes

Words! Mere words! How terrible they were! How clear, and vivid, and cruel! One could not escape from them. And yet what a subtle magic there was in them! They seemed to be able to give a plastic form to formless things, and to have a music of their own as sweet as that of viol or of lute. Mere words! Was there anything so real as words?

- Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

I have given away my whole soul to some one who treats it as if it were a flower to put in his coat,

How some straight men in classic literature act: women are smart and beautiful, but they seem so out of reach. 

Anyway, here is my best friend. He is so beautiful. He is the one person I can trust. We might have kissed a few times in this novel, like all good friends do. Did I mention how beautiful he is in this feminine way? It takes my breath away.

the age-old discussion as to whether or not ben barnes was poor casting for dorian gray is incredibly funny to me like yes we know that dorian is supposed to look like an innocent blond cherub instead of a dark luciferian daddy long leg prince of sin because literature but it all comes down nitpicking in the end because i’m just sure that oscar wilde the man himself would have been salivating over ben every waking minute of his damn life if he were here

#oscar wilde told me this himself when i was using an ouija board #he said to me that the sun doesn’t rise in the east #it rises in ben barnes’ eyes #and that he liked the movie #it’s true #oscar wilde #the picture of dorian gray #dorian gray #dorian gray 2009 #ben barnes #benjamin thomas barnes #dark academia #dark academia books #poc dark academia #english literature #english lit #classic literature #classic lit #english lit memes #classic lit memes #books and literature #book blog #books
