“in love, gallantry is necessary. Even when the first wild desire is gone, especially then, there is an inherent need for good manners and consideration, for the putting forth of effort. Two courteous and civilized human beings out of the loneliness of their souls owe that to each other.” NeedsFirstsHumansTwoSoulDesireHuman BeingsEffortGoneLonelinessMannersConsiderationGood ManCivilizedInherentGood MannersCourteousGallantry Author:Ilka Chase
“There is something so sad about going online and seeing almost everyone shouting ‘Notice me, notice me!’ Which is such a human desire—to be acknowledged. But me responding to that with some sort of ‘You’re noticed, you’re seen’ only perpetuates the loneliness. Because I’m not seeing you; I’m not noticing you. And whoever you are, you so deserve to be noticed and valued. I feel lucky to have not grown up with the Internet because it forced me to get out, struggle and be so messy.” FeelsHumansDesireStruggleSeeingLonelinessInternetLuckyDeserveOnlineMessyRespondingShoutingNoticingSo SadNotice MeNoticing You Author:Taylor Schilling
