dark academia to me is [waking up at 3am wanting to write] [quoting greek philosophers all the time] [wearing a black turtleneck like second skin] [having fun translating ancient greek texts] [fighting about how aristotle is the best philosopher 24/7] [devouring books , not literally] [liking all things forgotten] [drinking coffee because at this point it has turned into a personality trait] [being well spoken and mature among my crackhead peers]

Siemka Ziomkinie i Ziomeczki, na świecie i w Polsce dzieje się źle. Nienawiść, która zagnieździła się w sercach wielu ludzi i teraz właśnie wylała się na nas, jak niegdyś rzeki po zimie, łamie mi serce. Ale mi łamie tylko serce, a innym realnie zagraża. Dlatego musimy się zmobilizować i zmienić ten świat na lepszy. A przynajmniej wiecznie próbować.
Pamiętajcie, miłość i pokój.

“The Greeks…treated [music] as an essential part of all their religious rituals. Aristides Quintilianus, who lived some time between the 1st and 3rd centuries AD, reported of Greek life that, ‘To be sure, there is no action among men that is carried out without music. Sacred hymns and offerings are adorned with music, specific feasts and the festive assemblies of cities exult in it, wars and marches are both aroused and composed through music. It makes sailing and rowing and the most difficult of the handicrafts not burdensome by providing an encouragement for the work.’”
— The Story of Music – Howard
