The Reverist
reverist

(n.) rev-er-ist. One who gets lost in thought.

The Reverist collects short lines that make you stop. One at a time, with nothing else on the page, because a good line deserves a moment of quiet around it.

Some lines have travelled a long way and nobody remembers who said them first. Others are written here, and those carry their author's name.

Every line on the home page can be saved as an Instagram post or a phone wallpaper. In the evening the site turns dark; in the day it turns light. You can switch it yourself at the top of the page.
