"Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. It's a colourful analogy for when you believe that the thing being preserved is good or productive, and particularly for when it shares the good qualities of fire: self sustaining, energy giving, natural, etc."
Gustav Mahler

Btw I'm serious when I say Sarek has a human fetish. This is how those with a fetish for a certain group of people act. Sarek being disgusted by Spock's human side while also marrying human wives is 100% because of a fetish. Sarek is just the Star Trek version of Alma Mahler.
#sarek#spock#star trek the original series#this is also why i think michael burnham being spock's adopted sister is bad writing bc it goes against spock's whole character#like idrc if he has a million secret siblings or whatever even if it's dumb (it's been dumb from the start with sybok)#but sarek was so disgusted by spock's human side that spock remembered when he commented on that when he was BORN#and now some writers are telling me he adopted a human???!?!!? i don't buy it#+ it's also an offense to his entire storyline involving him being mixed species#and it's just lazy writing to make your main character related to the most influential star trek character ever#at least make her Not A Human#anyways#star trek tos#amanda grayson#alma mahler#gustav mahler

"like a wild animal gnawing off a leg to escape the jaws of a trap, i force myself to find new places to call home. inescapable choices to deal with inescapable tragedies. i just worry that i only have so many legs to stand on, and one day i'll fall and hit the basement of loneliness."
what is the nature of sacrifice?
fake out - fall out boy // atonement (2007) // the year in ugliness by arabelle sicardi // 14 lines from love letters or suicide notes by doc luben // crazy rich asians (2018) // the perks of being a wallflower (2012) // symphony no. 2 in c minor, or the resurrection symphony - gustav mahler // myself
#musings about intense convos with friends#thinking today about all that i had to give up or leave in pursuit of actually being happy#not just people and places but also ideas about myself and the world#fall out boy#atonement#arabelle sicardi#doc luben#crazy rich asians#the perks of being a wallflower#gustav mahler#webweaving#compilation#parallels#idk folks notes app poetry made itself into a post again

'Forever'
"Exclusive enthusiasts of the new do not consider the quality of being able to be repeated, re-heard, rethought, reviewed - the Re value - of works.
This is what makes a work functional - becomes form - once it has crossed the threshold of raw astonishments.
To preserve wonder in habituation. This is a rare value in works. A woman whose repeated possession increases the lover's desire is an infinite value."
"Great artists did not strive to be noticed, but to be looked at for a long time - which is quite different. Astonishment lasts a short while; shocking is not a long-term goal. But to be recalled by memory, to establish a great desire to be seen again, that is to aim not at the moment of passing, but at the very depth of one's being. A work that calls people back to it is more powerful than one that merely provokes them. This is true in everything: as for myself, I classify books according to the need they have inspired in me to reread them, more or less."
Paul Valéry

It is peculiar, but as soon as I am in the midst of nature and by myself, everything that is base and trivial vanishes without trace. On such days nothing scares me; and this helps me again and again.
— Gustav Mahler, published in a letter he wrote to his wife, Alma Mahler, on June 15, 1907. This letter is included in the book "The Letters of Gustav Mahler 1860-1911" edited by Henry-Louis de La Grange and Gunther Weiss. (via The Hammock Papers)
