"The sea is the consolation of this our day, as it has been the consolation of the centuries.
The sea is the matrix of creation, and we have the memory of it in our blood.
But far more than this is there in the sea.
It presents, upon the greatest scale we mortals can bear, those not mortal powers which brought us into being. It is not only the symbol or the mirror, but especially it is the messenger of the Divine."
"... All that which concerns the sea is profound and final."

CHRIS PINE AND JACK GYLLENHAALL CONFIRMED IN INTO THE WOODS
It was announced that Disney was in the makings of launching to the big screen an adaptation of the Broadway musical Into the Woods. So far, it appears their first goal is to assemble a dream cast.
Meryl Streep, to play the Wicked Witch, and Johnny Depp, to play the Big Bad Wolf were already confirmed, and now, according to the Hollywood Reporter, it appears Chris Pine (Princess Diaries 2) and Jack Gyllenhaal (The Prince of Persia) will be portraying two egotistical brothers who are, in fact, Cinderella’s and Rapunzel’s princes respectively.
What do you guys think?

I just love how they both look at each other before dancing!
She’s totally like, “oooh girl this my jam” and her twin is like “yea girl mine too!”

Welcome to Never After {x}
Is this like the British idea of trolling?
“Hi, USA,
this is United Kingdom speaking. We just seen Once Upon a Time, season 2. And you failed our expectations. So, we called agent Scully in and decided to troll you. Welcome to Never After, bitches.
On behalf of Her Majesty Elizabeth II. and the British OUAT fandom,
Silent Treatment”
.. No seriously is this going to be a real thing because if its not I’m swimming the Atlantic just to punch someone

♛ the fall of kings and the rise of queens ♛
We have known pain, we have suffered greatly but we have survived. We have buried our mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters, wept our tears and honoured them. Now we begin a new age - one of peace and joy. Let not kin fight kin, their blood not to water the earth that was marched across to the beat of war. Our great kingdom will now be ruled by three so that no man may claim his voice unheard. We vow to protect all, pledging ourselves to our people.
So let the North rejoice with their queen, Sansa the Brave, and the halls of Winterfell to be filled with cheer. From the Vale of Arryn, the Crownlands and the Stormlands, seated in King’s Landing, Shireen the Just, joint protector of the Wall. And presiding over the Riverlands, the Westerlands, the Reach and Dorne, Myrcella the Wise, who has taken up her colours of red and gold.All hail Queen Sansa!
All hail Queen Shireen!
All hail Queen Myrcella!

98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.
though a well recognized fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living entirely off his monthly state pension of 80 euros and the kindness of others.
You killed her because, finally, when you could have saved her, when you could have gone away with her, when you could have been thinking about her, you were thinking about yourself …
