oldhollywood: Robert Mitchum in publicity still for Night of the Hunter (1955, dir. Charles Laughton)  “You’re staring at my fingers. Would you like me to tell you the little story of right-hand/left-hand? The story of good and evil? H-A-T-E! It was with this left hand that old brother Cain struck the blow that laid his brother low. L-O-V-E! You see these fingers, dear hearts? These fingers has veins that run straight to the soul of man. The right hand, friends, the hand of love. Now watch, and I’ll show you the story of life. Those fingers, dear hearts, is always a-warring and a-tugging, one against the other.” (via)

barackobama: universe-at-my-fingertips: Preschoolers from my friends synagogue were asked what President Obama’s job was. These were their answers. Hannah: To protect the people. Reagan: He helps people. Stella: He helps people drive cars. Matan: He does work to get money to give to the people who don’t have money. Sia: He helps people who don’t have money and gives money to the people. Sadie: He sews dresses and pants for the people who don’t have clothes. Sounds about right. I LOVE MY PRESIDENT

Sometimes, you meet a wonderful person, but it’s only for a brief instant. Maybe on vacation or on a train or maybe even in a bus line. And they touch your life for a moment, but in a special way. And instead of mourning because they can’t be with you for longer, or because you don’t get the chance to know them better, isn’t it better to be glad that you met them at all?
Marian Keyes, Watermelon (via simply-quotes)

Being tender and open is beautiful. As a woman, I feel continually shhh’ed. Too sensitive. Too mushy. Too wishy washy. Blah blah. Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. Nothing is more powerful than allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all – look around you. All of this is for you. Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love.

Zooey Deschanel (via sugar-and-heartbreak)

Wait…this is beautiful. And describes exactly how I feel all the time. Especially these last few days…They have been very emotional.
