Your average person wouldn't recognize a sublime entity if it attempted to fist fuck them while waiting in line for the next Batman sequel. Janeane Garofalo
Waiting patiently doesn't suit you. I can see you have a great deal of water in your personality. Water never waits. It changes shape and flows around things, and finds the secret paths no one else has thought about.[Mameha] Arthur Golden
Absolute power corrupts absolutely; and if you surrender your personal responsibility to a government which promises to take care of you, they will only take care of themselves. Howard Nemerov
When I say that consciousness is an illusion I do not mean that consciousness does not exist. I mean that consciousness is not what it appears to be. If it seems to be a continuous stream of rich and detailed experiences, happening one after the other to a conscious person, this is the illusion. Susan Blackmore
Jim Rohn quote: "The ultimate reason for setting goals is to entice you to..."
The ultimate reason for setting goals is to entice you to become the person it takes to achieve them Jim Rohn
When I looked at her, she appeared to be a different person from the one I'd known... She had rewritten everything, our history together, our friendship. Now I was the girl who'd stolen Andres; the girl who'd lied to her about who I was. Therefore, she owned me nothing. Alice Hoffman
The practice of thrift is not outdated. We must discipline ourselves to live within our incomes even if it means going without or making do.
