“
The weird thing about houses is that they almost always look like nothing is happening inside of them, even though they contain most of our lives.

That moment when you get home and open the freezer and realize that your brother ate the last burrito even though you had been thinking about eating that burrito all day because you saw picture of a burrito on tumblr at work and you’re the one who bought that burrito in the first place.

Leo Tolstoy (via sirmitchell)
“
The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (via misswallflower)
“
It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.

Neil deGrasse Tyson (via sirmitchell)
“
The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.
For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that gets you.
