She gave the unmistakable impression of girlish innocence unconscious of its own beauty. Her hair was tied with a white ribbon and she wore a pearl necklace, and her lips slightly parted like the petals of an exotic flower before the rains come.
Yukio Mishima, Spring Snow (1969)
You'll never believe what's happened!
really is a shame that the star wars fandom at large is so obnoxious about obi-wan because there is a really compelling character in there. insanely emotionally repressed constantly burying his head in the sand about everything and everyone around him tool of a corrupt government who is well-intentioned but nonetheless woefully unprepared to mentor the most powerful force user in the history of the universe. and everyone looks at all of that and goes ACTUALLY. what if he was boring instead.
Samantha Mathis in LITTLE WOMEN (1994) dir. Gillian Armstrong
Make no mistake, the Dursleys are terrible people and unquestionably abusers.
But the one favor they did for Harry was never pretend as though they loved him. Vernon and Petunia made it very clear: You are not a part of this family. We don’t like you and never will.
They didn’t try to frame their abuse as “for Harry’s own good.” They didn’t try to make Harry believe that he could earn their love through good behavior. They didn’t tell him they loved him just as much as they loved Dudley, then subtly treat him like shit.
They were honest. And that honesty allowed Harry to put some emotional distance between himself and the Dursleys, even before Hogwarts. Because if the Dursleys don’t like him, then he didn’t have to like them.
Instead of vying for the Dursleys’ affection, Harry basically snarks his way through childhood, relishing in his status as an outsider. His early descriptions of the Dursleys are practically dripping with razor-sharp snark about their appearances and foibles. He finds comfort in the knowledge that a) he dislikes the Dursleys as much as they dislike him, and b) he alone sees these cartoonishly awful people for who they are.

Sleeping Beauty (1959)
Sweet princess, if through this wicked witch’s trick, a spindle should your finger prick… a ray of hope there still may be in this, the gift I give to thee. Not in death, but just in sleep, the fateful prophecy you’ll keep. And from this slumber you shall wake, when true love’s kiss, the spell shall break.
oh my heart just melted!! that's the true meaning of iconic as well really
I didn’t do the cosplay just for the meme….
