brunette-in-black, that's me. I'm not goth or emo and those you who associate the color black with those labels I have one thing to say: "I am not a candy bar so I do not require a label." I'm 17 and you could call me mildly depressed, but what teenager's life is perfect? See if you can name one, I know I'm hard pressed to.

1."So wise so young, they say, do never live long". - (Act III, Scene I) King Richard III. Willam Shakespeare.
2."Men at some time are masters of their fates: The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings". - (Act I, Scene II) Julius Caesar. William Shakespeare.
3. "Cowards die many times before their deaths; The valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come". - (Act II, Scene II) Julius Caesar. William Shakespeare.
4. "Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble." - (Act IV, Scene I) Macbeth. William Shakespeare.
5. "Nothing will come of nothing." - (Act I, Scene I) King Lear. William Shakespeare.
6. "I will wear my heart upon my sleeve for daws to peck at". - (Act I, Scene I) Othello. William Shakespeare.
7. "Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them". - (Act II, Scene V) Twelfth Night. William Shakespeare.
8. "Love sought is good, but giv'n unsought is better" . - (Act III, Scene I) Twelfth Night. William Shakespeare.
9. Love is like the wild rose-briar; Friendship like the holly-tree. The holly is dark when the rose-briar blooms, but which will bloom most constantly? - Emily Bronte.
10.Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same. - Emily Bronte.
11. If all else perished and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it. - Emily Bronte.
12. I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past. - Virginia Woolf.
13. I want the concentration and the romance, and the worlds all glued together, fused, glowing: have no time to waste any more on prose. - Virginia Woolf.
14. If you insist upon fighting to protect me, or 'our' country, let it be understood soberly and rationally between us that you are fighting to gratify a sex instinct which I cannot share; to procure benefits where I have not shared and probably will not share. - Virginia Woolf.
15. My own brain is to me the most unaccountable of machinery - always buzzing, humming, soaring roaring diving, and then buried in mud. And why? What's this passion for? - Virginia Woolf.
16. Nothing induces me to read a novel except when I have to make money by writing about it. I detest them. - Virginia Woolf.
17. The beauty of the world, which is so soon to perish, has two edges, one of laughter, one of anguish, cutting the heart asunder. - Virginia Woolf.
18. The history of men's opposition to women's emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself. - Virginia Woolf.
19. These are the soul's changes. I don't believe in ageing. I believe in forever altering one's aspect to the sun. Hence my optimism. - Virginia Woolf.
20. This is an important book, the critic assumes, because it deals with war. This is an insignificant book because it deals with the feelings of women in a drawing-room. - Virginia Woolf.
21. We can best help you to prevent war not by repeating your words and following your methods but by finding new words and creating new methods. - Virginia Woolf.
22. Cheerfulness, it would appear, is a matter which depends fully as much on the state of things within, as on the state of things without and around us. - Charlotte Bronte.
23. Conventionality is not morality. - Charlotte Bronte.
24. "You know that when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point of passion that unhinges my soul.” Julie de Lespinasse.
