So when i cannot study– which happens to people who have forgotten how to study ( who never really did study even when they did, if you know what i mean)– I come up with crappy stuff like this.

Hope..“There is nothing more to be said or to be done tonight, so hand me over my violin and let us try to forget for half an hour the miserable weather and the still more miserable ways of our fellowmen.” . — Arthur Conan Doyle, The Five Orange Pips (The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes)I still can’t believe that Game of Thrones has ended — even if they completely screwed it up towards the end. Sigh. But as far as I think, despite the last season being extremely rushed and poorly executed, the show couldn’t have ended in a better way. Whatever happened, had to happen eventually. But the plot needed more development.. and the last episode alone needed a whole season to itself. They completely twisted the narrative in the last two episodes and wanted the audience to ‘just understand’. . . I just hope Mr Martin gives us more detail and develops the plot a bit more in the remaining books.. oh and here’s hoping that he actually writes them so we get some kind of closure! . . So what did you think about the series finale?Today.“We eat the year away. We eat the spring and the summer and the fall. We wait for something to grow and then we eat it.” . — Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle“If you sit down and think about it sensibly, you come up with some very funny ideas. Like: why make people inquisitive, and then put some forbidden fruit where they can see it with a big neon finger flashing on and off saying 'THIS IS IT!'? ... I mean, why do that if you really don't want them to eat it, eh? I mean, maybe you just want to see how it all turns out. Maybe it's all part of a great big ineffable plan. All of it. You, me, him, everything. Some great big test to see if what you've built all works properly, eh? You start thinking: it can't be a great cosmic game of chess, it has to be just very complicated Solitaire.” . — Neil Gaiman , Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch . . I can’t wait for the show, which releases on Prime Video on the 31st. For the time being though, I have the book, which I’m reading these days for the third time now if I’m not wrong. Always a treat! . . Do watch the show, even if you don’t feel like reading the book. This is one show that must not be missed! #goodomens #neilgaiman #goodomensprimeMaddening-“Our wretched species is so made that those who walk on the well-trodden path always throw stones at those who are showing a new road.” . — Voltaire, Philosophical Dictionary On this day in 1717, Voltaire was banished from Paris and imprisoned in Bastille in suspicion of libel against the regent. His epic poem, ‘La Henriade’ was widely embraced by critics but infuriated the government to no end due to its cutting satire.“Heart, we will forget him, You and I, tonight! You must forget the warmth he gave, I will forget the light.” . . — Emily Dickinson (passed away today in 1886)Twitter
