my favorite quotes
"The only people for me are the mad ones... The ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the
same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like
spiders across the stars." - Jack Kerouac
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things
you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain
"They're best friends. Together they share complicated pasts,
common frustrations. Their friendship is a balancing act of forces
that would otherwise part them, a constant reorientation of needs,
crises, deflections at depths they are reluctant to plumb. For each of
them it is something different, for none of them does it remain a
single, defineable thing." - Paul Russell, "The Salt
Point"
"We've seen things, you and I, nobody else will ever believe. Been
places. Like Marco Polo when he came back from China, and they threw
him in prison for telling lies, but on his death bed he confessed he
only told the things he thought people might have a chance of
believing." - Jonathan Cloud, "Sea of Tranquility"
"Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that all was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, and make it possible." - T. E. Lawrence
"Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one." - Alfred D. Souza
