“We slice through the simultaneity by being everything at once: our first names and our last names, our loneliness and our society, our bold ambition and our blind hope, our unrequited and part-requited loves.” -Maria Popova from her book Figuring
I liked the quote so much yesterday that I didn’t realize I forgot to actually share Popova’s work. This is a quote from her book Figuring. She has a variety of thoughts that she shares. She’s even got her own creation, Bird Divinations. Her work is the type that makes you think because she takes a shot at sharing words from some of the greatest throughout history. I often head over to her page when I need a good think or some divine inspiration. She speaks on many universal themes that we all grapple with as humans. Her collection of writings will be valuable for much longer than a lifetime.
Have you checked her out yet?
A beautiful quote, describing the indescribable, which is what I try to do with my writing. Moments in time that light up all your senses and emotions simultaneously.
