This neckline…is startlingly immodest…but somehow I still love it.

No Surrender (by ew611)

Tom Hiddleston - Henry V

Extremely excited for a new version of my favorite Shakespeare play!!

There was a moment when I changed from an amateur to a professional. I assumed the burden of a profession, which is to write even when you don’t want to, don’t much like what you’re writing, and aren’t writing particularly well.

 Agatha Christie (via amandaonwriting)

I need to learn this lesson and stick to it.

Did you know that 405 years ago today in 1607 the Virginia Company explorers landed at Jamestown to establish America’s first permanent English colony? Come see us at Historic Jamestowne!

Anyone who ever visits me can count on seeing this amazing place.  I relish every opportunity to see the latest archaeological finds and simply walk the ground.

I've seen this before, but I still love it!

wonder what it would take to get Henry Tilney’s mobile number…

Ask politely, of course! 
I am growing quite accustomed to these modern trappings.  I prefer to go without them, but they can be quite useful.

Either ask politely or quote boy band lyrics, I bet:
CAN I GET YOUR NUMBER BABY
HIT ME WITH THE SEVEN DIGITS
:-D

1-800-ONE-SMRK?

Ah, I have been found out!  But I do not have an 800 number, and it is THE-SMRK, actually.

What?  No “Amazing bargains on true India muslin if you call right now and mention this ad”?

You wound me!  The things I do for my friends are not for profit!

Oh, far be it from me to say anything that I believed would wound you or cast any doubt on the sterling quality of your character!  The above was spoken in jest, I assure you.

Do not worry, most everything I say is spoken in jest!  You are a very kind and clever friend, and I appreciate your wit.

I am honored to have earned your esteem, and henceforth I will proceed with courage!  ;-)
