About Me


"This is thy hour O Soul, thy free flight into the wordless,
Away from books, away from art, the day erased, the lesson done,
Thee fully forth emerging, silent, gazing, pondering the themes thou lovest best,
Night, sleep, death and the stars."
-Walt Whitman, A Clear Midnight
You scored as Dante Alighieri, According to you most of humanity will spend at least some of their afterlife in hell. You have a high likelihood of being exiled, but anyone as bloody fucking romantic as you deserves what they get. You have an exceptional moral code, overshadowed by the fact that you yourself cannot uphold it.Your existence bears a definite irony, although of fairly Christian morality, many pagans, satanists, communists, and intellectuals admire you and your works for all the wrong reasons.Also, the brighest star in your sky is never going to be your lover...It takes a lot of grief to be the cartographer of hell.

My Interests

"For everything to be consummated, for me to feel less alone, I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators present on the day of my execution and that they greet me with cries of hate."
-Albert Camus, L’Étranger
