I love that Evelyn Waugh quote. It stood out to me when I first read BRIDESHEAD and it represented how I felt about leaving home for university, just like it did for Charles.
Unfortunately, life isn't a fairy tale, but seeking that low door and holding fast to the belief in that garden, is never a bad thing.
A love for Julia Flyte (fellow heathen!Catholic that she is) is the only good thing I got from my first boyfriend, so anything from it makes me want to comment just to say "YAY BRIDESHEAD". XD
(Using the power of scanning my separate LJ I use as a jotter, I managed to find ten, one of which I'd forgotten about and hadn't realized how much it had affected me until I noticed it there. That was a fun meme.)
I am going to try to play this now, but I don't think I've lived long enough to get ten. Seven if I'm *lucky*.
