The woods enclose. You step between the first trees and then you are no longer in the open air; the wood swallows you up. (…) Once you are inside it, you must stay there until it lets you out again (…)
Angela Carter, from The Erl-King in “The Bloody Chamber And Other Stories” (via adrasteiax)
It is too much—I am but flesh and blood, And I must sleep.
Edna St. Vincent Millay (via wordsnquotes)

Do I contradict myself? Very well, then, I contradict myself; I am large — I contain multitudes.
Walt Whitman (via quotemadness)
Heaven-invading hills are drowned
In wide moving waves of mist,
Phlox before my door are wound
In dripping wreaths of amethyst.
-Sara Teasdale, White Fog
Virgo the flowers, Taurus the trees, Capricorn the gems deep in the earth.
Gemini the hurricane, Libra the breath of life, Aquarius the tornado that never touches down.
Aries the hearth fire, Leo the bale fire, Sagittarius the lingering embers pulsing along burned wood.
Cancer the river, Scorpio the rapids, Pisces the very depths of the ocean.
If a poem hasn’t ripped apart your soul; you haven’t experienced poetry.
Edgar Allan Poe (via wordsnquotes)
