"You are a demon, like me. And you do not care very much if other girls have suffered, because you want only what you want. You will kill dogs, and hound old women in the forest, and betray any soul if it means having what you desire, and that makes you wicked, and that makes you a sinner."
#speaks to me

Hi, I'm Aleksandra. This blog is basically fangirling over TV shows riddled with F. Scott Fitzgerald adoration. I also love Beyonce, movies and the Moon River cocktail.
That said, the ASoIaF books own my life right now and the Lannister twins are my everything.

| favorite quotes |  the old order, it is good for the old. a farmer wants his son to be afraid of beautiful women, so that he will not leave home too soon, so he tells a story about how one drowned his brother’s cousin’s friend in a lake, not because he was a pig who deserved to be drowned, but because beautiful women are bad, and also witches. and it doesn’t matter that she didn’t ask to be beautiful, or to be born in a lake, or to live forever, or to not know how men breathe until they stop doing it. from Deathless | Catherynne M.

from Deathless | Catherynne M. Valente



"Hear me say it, because I know. I ate all of my husbands. First I ate their love, then their will, then their despair, and then I made lies out of their bodies—and those bodies were so dear to me! But marriage is war, and you do what you must to survive—because only one of you will."  - Catherynne M Valente, Deathless (via northernqueens)


"She was so beautiful, you cannot imagine. Her hair was the color of water in winter, and her bones were so delicate! She hardly had any breasts at all. When she danced, men killed themselves, knowing they would never again see such beauty. She had four lovers in Kiev, each richer than the other, but her heart was so cold that she could hold ice in her mouth and it would not melt. We could all have taken lessons from her."  - Catherynne M. Valente, Deathless


"I will not let her speak because I love her, and when you love someone, you do not make them tell war stories. A war story is a black space. On the one side is before and on the other side is after, and what is inside belongs only to the dead."  - Catherynne M. Valente, Deathless (via winterthenfell)
