"Every tool is a weapon if you hold it right."
Love the creative mind. Double takes and giggles. Love being shocked and then forced to ask, "What did you just say?!" Piano. Outside. The sun on some days, rain and snow on most. Overcast. Cold weather and sitting by the fireplace. Books. Art. THE ARTS. Coffee and independence. Exploring, hiking. Being called sweets. And pumpkin pie.
Don't use the word love unless you truly mean it.
"There is no remedy for love but to love more."
-Henry David Thoreau
"...A good book is the precious lifeblood of a master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose to a life beyond life."
-John Milton
"To stop the flow of music would be like the stopping of time itself, incredible and inconceivable."
-Aaron Copland
"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds."
-Bob Marley
"Dignity and love do not blend well, nor do they continue long together."
-Ovid
"Live all you can - it's a mistake not to. It doesn't so much matter what you do in particular, so long as you have your life. If you haven't had that, what have you had?"
-Henry James
"In this world of sin and sorrow there is always something to be thankful for; as for me, I rejoice that I am not a Republican."
-H.L. Mencken
A few of my loves.
