/lit/ - Literature

I never feel like I have read enough, even when I read a lot.

>People often say that the English are very cold fish, very reserved, that they have a way of looking at things – even tragedy – with a sense of irony. There’s some truth in it; it’s pretty stupid of them, though. Humor won’t save you; it doesn’t really do anything at all. You can look at life ironically for years, maybe decades; there are people who seem to go through most of their lives seeing the funny side, but in the end, life always breaks your heart. Doesn’t matter how brave you are, how reserved, or how much you’ve developed a sense of humor, you still end up with your heart broken. That’s when you stop laughing. In the end there’s just the cold, the silence and the loneliness. In the end, there’s only death.

Anyone else have a hard time articulating their thoughts into speech? Whenever I come to face with a person I just turn frozen. If they ask me what I think about whatever book I end up spilling my spaghetti. Anyone else have issues like this? I envy people that are quick witted and can some how talk and think simultaneously. This really feels awful.

Is it over for me if I don't go to a prestigious school?
I won't make the connections, I wont meet literary people and will be surrounded by plebs instead, I won't get a /lit/ gf, I will be a pleb my whole life.
