To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting. ~e.e. cummings, 1955
MY ONLY INTERESTS ARE TO BE ME, I ONLY DO WAT I DO AND THATS WAT INTERESTS ME-Roland L. Drumgo
The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread. ~Mother TeresaYou have to walk carefully in the beginning of love; the running across fields into your lover's arms can only come later when you're sure they won't laugh if you trip. ~Jonathan Carroll, "Outside the Dog Museum"Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward together in the same direction. ~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars, 1939, translated from French by Lewis GalantièreYou don't love a woman because she is beautiful, she is beautiful because you love her. ~Author UnknownLove is much like a wild rose, beautiful and calm, but willing to draw blood in its defense. ~Mark OverbyLove is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end. ~Author UnknownLove looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. ~William Shakespeare, Mid-Summer Night's Dream, 1595Without love, what are we worth? Eighty-nine cents! Eighty-nine cents worth of chemicals walking around lonely. ~Laurence Marks, M*A*S*H, "Love Story," original air date 7 January 1973, spoken by the character HawkeyeAnyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly. ~Rose FrankenLove is the magician that pulls man out of his own hat. ~Ben HechtWHEN I CAN DO THESE THINGS TO A FEMALE THIS IS WAT I WANT TO HAVE!! TO SAY WHO I LIKE TO MEET IS NONSENSE!! I ONLY WANT LOVE TO MEET HER I WOULD HAVE TO TEAR OUT MY OWN HEART AND SPREAD IT ON A DUMMY....THEN AND ONLY THEN SHE WOULD APPEAR MY LOVE OF LIFE- Roland L Drumgo.
Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. ~Maya Angelou, Gather Together in My Name
When ideas float in our mind without any reflection or regard of the understanding, it is that which the French call revery, our language has scarce a name for it. ~John Locke
It's at night, when perhaps we should be dreaming, that the mind is most clear, that we are most able to hold all our life in the palm of our skull. I don't know if anyone has ever pointed out that great attraction of insomnia before, but it is so; the night seems to release a little more of our vast backward inheritance of instincts and feelings; as with the dawn, a little honey is allowed to ooze between the lips of the sandwich, a little of the stuff of dreams to drip into the waking mind. I wish I believed, as J. B. Priestley did, that consciousness continues after disembodiment or death, not forever, but for a long while. Three score years and ten is such a stingy ration of time, when there is so much time around. Perhaps that's why some of us are insomniacs; night is so precious that it would be pusillanimous to sleep all through it! A "bad night" is not always a bad thing. ~Brian W. Aldiss
The greatest obstacle to discovering the shape of the earth, the continents and the ocean was not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge. ~Daniel J. Boorstin, The Discoverers
We have learned to fly the air like birds and swim the sea like fish, but we have not learned the simple art of living together as brothers. ~Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength to Love, 1963
