He would say, "How funny it will all seem, all you've gone through, when I'm not here anymore, when you no longer feel my arms around your shoulders, nor my heart beneath you, nor this mouth on your eyes, because I will have to go away some day, far away..." And in that instant I could feel myself with him gone, dizzy with fear, sinking down into the most horrible blackness: into death. Arthur Rimbaud
Elaine had done the ungraceful thing as usual. Guenever, in similar circumstances, would have been sure to grow pale and interesting—but Elaine had only grown plump. T. H. White

Sooner or later the submerged nation rises again to the surface; Greece is still Greece and Italy, Italy... The theft of a people can never be justified. These august swindles have no future. A nation cannot be shaped as though it were a pocket handkerchief. Victor Hugo

We all take such pains to over-educate ourselves. In the wild struggle for existence, we want to have something that endures, and so we fill our minds with rubbish and facts, in the silly hope of keeping our place. The thoroughly well-informed man - that is the modern ideal. And the mind of the thoroughly well-informed man is a dreadful thing. It is like a bric-a-brac shop, all monsters and dust, with everything priced above its proper value. Oscar Wilde
Leo Buscaglia quote: "In the end you have only you."
In the end you have only you. Leo Buscaglia
I said to myself 'I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me--shapes and idea so near to my-- so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down.' I decided to start anew to strip away what I had been taught... Georgia O'Keeffe
Here you go, she said. I don't need it anymore. I'm very grateful. I think it may have saved my life, saved some other people's death. Neil Gaiman
Stephen King quote: "Oh no, praying is great, without it the thumbscrews and the..."
Oh no, praying is great, without it the thumbscrews and the Iron Maiden probably never would have been invented. Stephen King
Benjamin Franklin quote: "Then plough deep, while sluggards sleep, and you shall have..."
Then plough deep, while sluggards sleep, and you shall have corn to sell and to keep. Benjamin Franklin
Forgiveness means it finally becomes unimportant that you hit back. You're done. It doesn't necessarily mean that you want to have lunch with the person. If you keep hitting back, you stay trapped in the nightmare... Anne Lamott
We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open. Jawaharlal Nehru
