"The object of a comedy is not to correct morals or ridicule the vices of society; no, a comedy should depict the discrepancies between life and purpose, should be the fruit of bitter indignation aroused by the degradation of human dignity, should be sarcasm, and not an epigram, convulsive laughter and not an amused grin, should be written with bile and not diluted salt, in a word, it should embrace life in its highest significance." — Vissarion Belinsky

HOLY SHIT A VISSARION BELINSKY POST ON MY DASH. This automatically rockets you to most flawless tumblr I have ever or will ever follow. Pretty sure VB is the most awesome writer/critic to have ever lived- totally worship every word he wrote.
queens and huntsmen, physicality stanning, theater feelings, hilarious myopia, nonstop verbosity, delusions of grandeur. fictional moral compass not found.
