We've got a form of brainwashing going on in our country…. Do you know how they brainwash people? They repeat something over and over. And that's what we do in this country. Owning things is good. More money is good. More property is good. More commercialism is good. MORE IS GOOD. MORE IS GOOD. We repeat it--and have it repeated to us--over and over until nobody bothers to even think otherwise. The average person is so fogged up by all this, he has no perspective on what's really important... Morrie Schwartz
Nicholas Sparks quote: "Most people don’t know how to appreciate the silence. They..."
Most people don’t know how to appreciate the silence. They can’t help talking. Nicholas Sparks

A schlemihl is a schlemihl. What can you "make" out of one? What can one make out of himself? You reach a point, and Profane knew he had reached it, where you know how much you can and cannot do. But every now and again he got attacks of acute optimism. Thomas Pynchon
to know how to read is to light a lamp in the mind, to release the soul from prison, to open a gate to the universe." from Pavilion of Women page 292 Pearl S. Buck
They say it’s always darkest until right before the dawn. I’ve worked on enough projects to know how true this saying really is. Meg Cabot
You lie upon my heart as on a nest, Folded in peace, for you can never know. How crushed I am with having you at rest. Heavy upon my life. I love you so. You bind my freedom from its rightful quest. In mercy lift your drooping wings and go. Amy Lowell
Years after I'd seen him for the last time I found myself thinking of him unexpectedly and often. You know how certain places grow powerful in the mind with passing time. In those early morning dreams when I come back to bed after a sleepy pee and fall quickly into the narrow end of the night, there is one set of streets I keep returning to, one dim mist of railroad rooms and certain figures reappear, borderline ghosts. Don DeLillo
Without knowing how to calculate the odds on such matters, it seems improbably to me that God would have whispered the meaning of my life into the ear of some guru or authority. Sam Keen
Lady, I do not make up things. That is lies. Lies are not true. But the truth could be made up if yo know how. And that's the truth. Lily Tomlin
She had an overwhelming desire to tell him, like the most banal of women. Don't let me go, hold me tight, make me your plaything, your slave, be strong! But they were words she could not say. The only thing she said when he released her from his embrace was, "You don't know how happy I am to be with you." That was the most her reserved nature allowed her to express. Milan Kundera
nobody means to get carried away in mediocrity, but it happens, it happens unless you think about everything you do, unless you make every choice the best one you know how to make. Richard Bach
One challenge of our adventure on earth is to rise above dead systems...wars, nations, destructions...to refuse to be a part of them, and express the highest selves we know how to be. Richard Bach
