"History is not about dates and quotes and obscure provisos. History is about life. About change. About consequences. Cause and effect. It’s about the mystery of human nature. The mystery of time. And it isn’t just about politics and the military and social issues, which is almost always the way it’s taught. It’s about music and poetry and drama and science and medicine and money and love."

The reason we’re all “Hozier’s music is so lesbian” is because unlike 99.9% of male artists writing about women, he treats women like people and not objects.

friendships
come and go, and i know that’s extremely hard to get through, but please try
your best to not get lost in the memories – try your best to take all of the
good ones with you in your heart, and then walk forward into the future; things
will be okay, i promise
