I am here for Friends

About Me

God, how these walls still cramp my soul,
This cursed, stifling prison-hole
Where even heaven's dear light must pass
Dimly through panes of painted glass!
Hemmed in by books to left and right
Which worms have gnawed, which dust-layers choke,
And round them all, to ceiling-height,
This paper stained by candle smoke,
These glasses, boxes, insteruments,
All stuffed and cluttered anyhow,
Ancestral junk- look at it now,
Your world, this world your brain invents!
~Faust
..
'Un man qui craint les voleurs n'est point digne d'amour'
There is a mower death yclept. Hath power which the Lord hath kept. When he 'gins his scythe to whet, keener it grows and keener yet, soon will he slash, man must endure the gash.
~ Berlin Alexanderplatz
I'm a haughtily intellectual (or would like to think myself as such) and enjoy having intellectual conversations that last for hours. And no, it doesn't really matter if you agree with my views or not. I also have high expectations for humanity, but keep getting let down which leaves me to be a pessimist in the long term. I do enjoy as much of my day to day life as possible so am a very happy person. My life is full of contradictions and i've come to accept that.

My Interests



the depth and bredth of my interest extend to any place my mind wanders.

I'd like to meet:

Let's see... well there is Cleopatra (I'd love to see if she's really as charming as they say), Goethe, Anne Rice, John Lennon, Mephestopheles, Gastmann, Kaethe Kollwitz (feminist, humanist, socialist artist. Honestly what's not to love?), Karl Marx, Lenin (Just to ask how he could honestly fuck up Communism so horribly), Queen Liliuokalani, Martin Luther, MLK, Gandhi, Friz Lang, Thomas Mann... well those are all of the famous people I can think of at the moment. Otherwise, I'm willing to talk if you are.

Music:

I find that all music has it's time and place to be played. I don't like to confine myself to the limits of certain genres or specific bands. Tastes and preferences change... much more often then I like to update my profile.

Movies:

"I know nothing of god or the devil. I have never seen a vision nor learned a secret that will damn or save my soul," said by Armond in Interview with the Vampire. I'm mostly into dramas, animation and kung fu... but my moods change and so do the movies i like to see.

Television:

My Family, Black Adder, Stargate- SG1, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, Dirty Jobs, What Not to Wear, Mythbusters.... pretty much anything viewed as geeky or nerdy, i'll probably be watching

Books:

Persepolis, Son of the Shadow, Circus of the Damned, Perfume by Patrick Sueskind, anything by Diderot and Kant. My favorite though, is the great Marx... Also anything by Goethe, Thomas Mann or Anne Rice.

Heroes:

Batman... superhero with no mutant or alien powers... just lots and lots of cash, what's not to love?

In actuallity... Herr Figge! Best Prof a girl could ask for. Thanks Herr Figge for introducing me to Faust and Meph, Baerlach and Gastmann! "Take out a sheet of paper. Put your name at the top, that's fairly obvious. Number from one to five."

My Blog
