I don't know what I'm doing here, but that's okay with me. I don't know what true function this has, if any, but I have an idea of what I'll be posting. Pictures, videos, music, words. Really, just things I find interesting, significant, or entertaining.

So, look around, listen to a song or two, browse some photos, read some stuff. Enjoy yourself.

As a disclaimer, I would like to say that I own nothing that I post here. If, however, you do and you would like it taken down, please let me know and I will be happy to do so.

"He used to think that he wanted to be good, he wanted to be kind, he wanted to be brave and wise, but it was all pretty difficult. He wanted to be loved, too, if he could fit it in."

” (…) Und wie ich so dasaß und über die alte, unbekannte Welt nachsann, dachte ich daran, welches Wunder es für Gatsby bedeutet haben musste, als er zum ersten Mal das grüne Licht am Ende von Daisys Steg erblickte. Er hatte einen weiten Weg bis zu diesem blauen Rasen zurückgelegt, und sein Traum muss ihm zum Greifen nah erschienen sein. Er wusste nicht, dass der Traum bereits hinter ihm lag, irgendwo in jener unermesslichen Finsternis jenseits der Stadt, wo die dunklen Felder des Landes unter dem Nachthimmel wogten.

Gatsby glaubte an das grüne Licht, die wundervolle Zukunft, die Jahr für Jahr vor uns zurückweicht. Damals entwischte sie uns, aber was macht das schon — morgen laufen wir schneller, strecken die Arme weiter aus … Und eines schönen Tages …

So kämpfen wir weiter, wie Boote gegen den Strom, und unablässig treibt es uns zurück in die Vergangenheit.

{So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.}

*

— The Great Gatsby, F.S. Fitzgerald, S. 224

"Quand j’étais plus jeune et plus vulnérable, mon père, un jour, m’a donné un conseil que je n’ai pas cessé de retourner dans ma tête.
— Chaque fois que tu seras tenté de critiquer quelqu’un, m’a-t-il dit, songe d’abord que tout un chacun n’a pas eu en ce bas monde les mêmes avantages que toi."

- Francis Scott Fitzgerald,
