About Me

"The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence that it is not utterly absurd; indeed in view of the silliness of the majority of mankind, a widespread belief is more likely to be foolish than sensible"
- Bertrand Russell

"Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live. "-Oscar Wilde

"I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart. I am. I am. I am."-Sylvia Plath

morning will come and everything will look nice in the sunlight.

Television:

Not really. I do like to watch TV shows on DVD so that I don't have to commit to watching TV at a certain time every week, plus I don't have TV so it would be really hard. Plus, I like nature documentaries and other documentaries, but not so much that I'm one of those documentary people.

Yes. Authors (you'll be lucky if I remember five that I like) Albert Camus, Jose Saramago, Chuck Palahnuik, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Margaret Atwood...bunch of others. I think reading is a swell past time.
