My complete weakness is words. A good set of words thoughtfully and beautifully strung together make my head spin in only the best of ways. I spend hours either getting lost in books or searching for quotes that I can relate to. I feel like, besides poets and writers, people don't appreciate words any more. We are always shortening or changing them up to make new ones when we have perfectly lovely words already. We don't even make an effort to seduce people by clever phrases or lure them with bewitching poetry. You don't even need to come up with it yourself, find something of F.Scott Fitzgerald's or Michael Faudet's and apply it to the gorgeous lady you've been captivated by. There is always something better than a "hey girl, you looking good tonight" or some cheesy pick up line. If you are seriously interested, you'll make the time to either think of something lovely or find a quote that expresses your attraction to her.
Let's not stop there though! We can bring wonderful words to everyday compliments, instead of saying "yeah that dress looks nice" try "you look enchanting tonight". A little effort goes a long way when it comes to words. Whether it's to your mom, dad, sister, brother, who ever, make an effort to flatter them with exquisite compliments.
If you need somewhere to start I actually have a collection of quotes on
Pinterest . Otherwise, type anything into google and put the word "quote" behind it and I'm sure you can find exactly what you are looking for.
Let me know in the comments below some of your favorite quotes!
The sentiment you express here makes me want to re watch "Dead Poets Society" for the millionth time. Words have meaning. Words have weight and feeling. Words have a life of their own. Words are beautiful beyond comparison when they're wielded well.
