"Often we pass beside happiness without seeing it, without looking at it, or even if we have seen and looked at it, without recognizing it."

“Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference.”

— Reinhold Niebuhr

all i see is grantaire whispering this every night when he falls asleep and trying to calm himself down by whispering it through his tears when he has panic attacks about enjolras and getting it tattooed on his wrists and oh my god this makes me so sad now

(via theydieholdinghands)

“I would give anything to be in your margins,” Grantaire continues. “Because—minor characters, we don’t need to be anything. We can be defined by whatever the main character is. And that—I am completely okay with that, Enjolras. I don’t need to be anything except the brat on the edge of the pages.” (x)

 

okay, that’s basically my favorite part of novelesque diary but I can’t draw srsly emotional stuff, so this looks more like domestic e/r with r being a bit too distracted to do his whole writing in the margins of books thing (or maybe he’s already filled the pages up with how distracting enjolras’ mere presence is and there are doodles of enjolras on every page, idek.)

(all i know is that this was a unfinished for two weeks or something and i didn’t completely fuck it up now, so I’m actually quite proud haha)

Les Misérables, Victor Hugo

(via darntagnan)

Bahorel was a creature of good humour and bad company, brave, a spendthrift, prodigal almost to the point of generosity, talkative almost to eloquence, bold almost to insolence; the best possible stock for the devil … enjoying nothing so much as a quarrel unless it were a riot.

“Did you think to kill me? There’s no flesh and blood within this cloak to kill. There is only an idea. And ideas are bulletproof.”

(Source: t-funster, via jen-suis)

"Combeferre inclined to let progress do her work — the good progress, cold, perhaps, but pure; methodical, but irreproachable; phlegmatic, but imperturbable. Combeferre would have knelt down and clasped his hands, asking that the future might come in all its radiant purity and that nothing might disturb the unlimited virtuous development of the people. “The good must be innocent,” he repeated incessantly."

Victor Hugo, Les Misérables (via punktaire)

I shouldn’t be alive unless it was for a reason. I’m not crazy, Pepper. I just finally know what I have to do. And I know in my heart that it’s right.

I want a trouble-maker for a lover, blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame, who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate, who burns like fire on the rushing sea.
