Not all those who wander are lost

Things are only impossible until they're not.
There are very few among the thinking few...
The other do not think at all...
They only think they do.
Success is not a result of spontaneous combustion;
you must first set yourself on fire.
A desk is a dangerous place from which to watch the world.
The future will be better tomorrow.
The only way to discover the limits of the possible
is to go beyond them into the impossible.
Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.
People who think they know everything are very
annoying for us that do.
The essence of life is to be found in the
frustrations of established order.
Food is an important part of a balanced diet.
If you try to fail, and succeed...which have you done?
I love to go down to the schoolyard

Today he has no means, he is alone and anonymous.
But written in his cells he's got the marks of a genius.
You must be more than firm with your enemies.
You must be brutal.
You must lead with your right, and follow with a steel-toed
kick to the groin. Grab them by the scruffs of the neck like
unruly dogs, drag them to the dirt and kneel next to them.
Hit them as many times as it takes until they whimper in submission.
Hit them slowly, with force, until they're no longer
capable of causing you harm. If you refuse to act such,
you will never be safe. You will never win. You will always be
held under the thumb of another.
Some people cause happiness wherever they go;
Other people cause happiness whenever they go.
Life does not have to be perfect to be wonderful.
Nothing exists except atoms and empty space;
everything else is opinion. -Democratus
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
-Albert Einstien
Life is extinct on other planets because their
scientists were more advanced than ours.
We know what we are; but know not what we may be.
-William Shakepeare, Hamlet
Life is...Paradoxically coincidental to the
ironical tyranny applicable to the unparalled
definition of reverse entropy.
Absence from whom we love is worse than death,
and frustrates hope severer than despair.
-Willam Couper
Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it.
-Thomas Fuller
The heart has its reasons that reason does not know.
-Pascal
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I'm schizophrenic
And so am I
Two trails diverged in a wood
And I...
I took the road less traveled.
And that has made all the difference

That day I watched you leave...
Off to play for another day
Now that day has gone away,

What is logic?
That which we consider logical may only be considered illogical
by all but the most closely related rational beings but ourselves.
For what we see as completely logical can only be seen as the most
utterly roundabout way to the solution as possible.
For if 2+2=4 to us and 2+2=5 to a being that our convoluted logic cannot
even begin to comprehend, then who are we to say that our logic,
the logic that even most of us have trouble comprehending,
is better, more complete, less illogical than their own convoluted,
super straight-forward seeming illogical logic?

But, nonetheless, it was time to go.
Sometimes, it is. Love be damned. Sometimes: it's time.
And it's a big, ugly, black-as-my-heart-on-a-bad-day
motherfucking iceberg lurking underneath.
I still haven't found my angle of repose.
The sides of my landscape keep caving in,
burying me underneath a weight of doubt,
anger and ennui.
Life is not only far more complicated than we imagine,
but people are far more nasty than they otherwise might reveal.
And then it leapt from the Earth and went spearing upwards,
its wild voice laughing mockery...filling the universe with
its unholy joy.
Near to the door
he paused to stand
as he took his class ring
off her hand
all who were watching
did not speak
as a silent tear
ran down his cheek
and through his mind
the memories ran
of the moments they walked
and ran in the sand hand and hand
but now her eyes were so terribly cold
for he would never again
have her to hold
they watched in silence
as he bent near
and whispered the words..
"I LOVE YOU" in her ear
he touched her face and started to cry
as he put on his ring and wanted to die
and just then the wind began to blow
as they lowered her casket
into the snow....
this is what happens

When you are sad,.............
I will get you drunk and help you plot revenge against the

I'll try to dislodge whatever's choking you.
When you smile,............
I'll know you finally got laid.
When you are scared,.........
I will rag you about it every chance I get.
When you are worried,.........
I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it
could be and to quit whining.
When you are confused,........
I will use little words to explain it to your dumb ass.
When you are sick.........
Stay away from me until your well again, I don't want whatever you have.
When you fall......
I will point and laugh at your clumsy ass.
This is my oath...............
I pledge till the end. Why you may ask?........
Because you're my friend.
Send this to ten of your closest friends and get depressed because you only
have 2 friends, and one's not speaking to you right now anyway.
You are only truly alive for nine months... the rest of the time you are slowly
dying.

Eleanor Roosevelt wrote: Many people will walk in and out of your life, but
only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. To handle yourself, use
your head; to handle others, use your heart. Anger is only one letter short
of danger. If someone betrays you once, it is his fault; if he betrays you twice,
it is your fault. Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small
minds discuss people. He who loses money, loses much; He, who loses a friend,
loses much more;
To live life with what we've never had is far better than knowing what's missing,
and regretting its loss for the rest of our days.

fight in your heart?” The grandfather answered, “The one I feed.”

Like a cat
dragged in from the rain
who goes straight back out
to do it all over again
I'll be back for more

something we will never understand
it's a hidden law
the apple falls
destiny calls
I follow you
Like a pawn
on the eternal board
who's never quite sure
what he's moved towards
I walk blindly on
and heaven is in front of me
your heaven beckons me enticingly
when I arrive
it's gone
the river flows
the wise man knows
I follow you
I'm yearning
I'm burning
I feel love's wheels turning
Like a moth on love's bright light
I will get burned
each and every night
I'm dying to(o)
the sun will shine
the bottom line
I follow you.

If you could step into my head,
Tell me would you still know me?
If you woke up in my bed,
Tell me then would you hold me?
Or would you simply let it lie,
Leaving me to wonder why
I can’t get you out of this head
I call mine
And I will say
Oh no I can’t let you go,
My little girl
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you
Your imitation of my walk
And the perfect way you talk
It’s just a couple of the million things
That I love about you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
And if I jumped off the Brooklyn Bridge,
Tell me would you still follow me?
And if I made you mad today,
Tell me would you love me tomorrow?
Please
Or would you say that you don’t care,
And then leave me standing here
Like the fool who is drowning in despair
And screamin’
Oh no I can’t let you go,
My little girl
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you
Your imitation of my walk
And the perfect way you talk
It’s just a couple of the million things
That I love about you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
I’m on my own
I’m on my own
I’m on my own
Oh no I can’t let you go,
My little girl
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you
Your imitation of my walk
And the perfect way you talk
It’s just a couple of the million things
That I love about you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
So I need you
