@poeticinterludes: This is why reading fiction is so important. It reminds me of a James baldwin quote I love, where he says, “You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, who had ever been alive”. That puts it perfectly honestly #fyp #BookTok #poetrytok #poetry #reading
yessss i disagree so much when people say fiction is a waste of time. It shapes you… sometimes more than self help books. Self help books can have useful info but it won’t move you emotionally like fiction stories

This reminds me of my favorite quote
"In films, we are voyeurs, but in novels, we have the experience of being someone else: knowing another person's soul from the inside. No other art form does that. And this is why sometimes, when we put down a book, we find ourselves slightly altered as human beings. Novels change us from within."

The feeling you get from reading can never be fully captured by a movie. and that is why i would never watch some movie adaptation

books, both fiction and non-fiction, are such an amazing way to connect with something and with your own emotions. being able to experience laughter, happiness, excitement, anticipation, surprise, sorrow, heartbreak, etc while reading or watching something is genuinely one of my favourite things in my life and i don't think i would be who i am today without all the worlds i've experienced

“That is part of the beauty of all literature. You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you're not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong.” - F Scott Fitzgerald

This is his strength. I can tell he’s a big reader through his acting. He really seems to love acting not because of fame or celebrity status, but because it allows him to represent so many different people through his art

i’ve always had such a passion for the arts, it changes people and leaves such a big impact. humans are absolutely nothing without art. the free expression though the arts is so powerful. the ability to speak without using any words but with art is such a beautiful type of communication. the ability to connect with others through arts impact, i absolutely love it
