Open your eyes, open your mind
Proud like a god don't pretend to be blind
Trapped in yourself, break out instead
Beat the machine that works in your head.
Never let someone else be your priority,
while allowing yourself to be their option.
Sometimes... you can cry until there is nothing wet left in you. You can scream and curse until your throat rebels and ruptures. You can pray, all you want, to whatever God you think will listen. And, still, it makes no difference. It goes on, with no sign as to when it might release you. And you know that if it ever did relent... it would not be because it cared.
Most people don't need a great deal of love nearly so much as they need a steady supply.
As beautiful as these moments are, they are evil when they're gone.
At the end of the game, the king and the pawn go in the same box.
What passes for optimism is most often the effect of an intellectual error.
Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day.
Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
What we see depends on mainly what we look for.
People don't change; they only become more so.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Do not try to solve all life's problems at once -- learn to dread each day as it comes.
Best of all is never to have been born. Second best is to die soon.
When people say nothing, they don't necessarily mean nothing.
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
I think the best people I've ever met are people full of defects, and the worst people I've ever met are people obsessed with being perfect.
Only a fool has no doubts.
In real love you want the other person's good. In romantic love you want the other person.
Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones
Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that
created them
Remember Darwin; building a better mousetrap merely results in smarter mice
