Under the charm...

It has been a while since my last "posting thoughts on my blog" mood... about a month really. So many happened I am not even bothered to name them.The holidays haven't really caught me at the seaside, but rather in a dorm room with 2 guitars around and new friends... and a lovely exciting atmosphere with no worries in between.

Anyway, now I'm back to my old life... where I am quite glad to be, honestly.
At the moment, I can say I am under the charms of Mr Dorian Gray.Yas, I've begun reading "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde and I can say I am in love with it.If only I'd found more books of this kind... That particular era fascinates me.The people, the costumes, the prejudices...all intriguing and not to mention lovely.The pure beauty described in it's pages... Mezmerizing.

Quotes:
"There was something fascinating in this son of Love and Death"

"Behind every exquisite thing that existed, there was something tragic"

"She had sent her soul to search for him, and it had brough him back"

"Beautiful sins, like beautiful things are the privilede of the rich"

"-we shall all suffer for what gods have given us, suffer terribly"

"I can sympathise with everything, except suffering"






If anyone who passes by have read this book, or others of this sort (genre) please stop a moment and leave a thought.An oponion, a quotation that got to your heart, advice for something as good to read as this...Anything you may fancy.
