“There is a word that hurts my heart—one I don’t ever say out loud. Like the shadow that lingers in the light, I can’t separate myself from your memory. But there are some nights when I look up into the sky, and the moon is whole again.” –Lang Leav

☾ One of her favourite poetic quotes ☽

“We read on. We go on looking, as we’ve always looked, not so much for [flint artifacts] as for ourselves, our own, obscure traces. Reading books, visiting museums, or simply stopping short before the vast, gold umbrella of some chestnut tree in mid-autumn, aren’t we always, in a sense, looking for ourselves? A lonely species by nature, made even more so today by the loss of any commonly shared vision—any collectively accepted referent—we wander through galleries, archival tumuli, and archeological vestige, hoping to discover, at any given instant, the key, the tiny, metallic glint in the midst of our own shadows. Call it, if you will, the breath at the very heart of our own empty mirror.” — Gustaf Sobin, from Luminous Debris: Reflecting on Vestige in Provence and Languedoc (University of California Press, 1999)
