Mitsh "Razors pain you,
Rivers are damp.
Acids stain you,
Drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful,
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful -
You might as well live." I'm a big fan of Dorothy Parker as well. I still know that one by heart. heart

Ah, here it is:
"You see, I believe in freedom, Mr. Lipwig. Not many people do, although they will, of course, protest otherwise. And no practical definition of freedom would be completely without the freedom to take the consequences. Indeed, it is the freedom upon which all the others are based."
- Lord Vetinari, from Terry Pratchett's Going Postal.

"Any path followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test that it's a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you can not see the mountain."
"The vision of time is broad, but when you pass through it, time becomes a narrow door."

Quotes on friendship....
"Your friend is your needs answered. He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving. And he is your board and your fireside. For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace. "
"A true friend stabs you in the front."
"Friends hold both the power to excel your life, or destroy it. "
And here is one that I have felt the true relevance of:
"True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable. "

 >> Only the blackest of hearts
There is no good or evil: only power and those too weak to seak it.
- Lord Voldemort; Harry Potter series
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
- "Fire and Ice" by Robert Frost
The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who in time of great moral crises maintain their neutrality.
- Dante, author of the Divine Comedy
About sacrifice and the offering of sacrifices, sacrificial animals think quite differently from those who look on: but they have never been allowed to have their say.
- Nietzsche (joining that band wagon)
"Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe."
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
- Einstein
The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference.
And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.
- Elie Wiesel
You can have power over people as long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything, he's no longer in your power.
- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
- Pablo Picasso
Not to be born is best, but having seen the light, the next best is to go whence one came as soon as may be.
- Sophocles

Y'alright I'm done
Can feel the purest of love <<

Let all warriors bear their mark proudly,
taking what pride they can in their accomplishments;
for our lives should be full of glory, but short.
On the battlefield we are alone.
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.
One sees well only with the heart. The essential is invisible to the eyes.
In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities.
He who wants to enslave you will never tell you the truth about your forefathers.

"God's in His Heaven, all's right with the world."
-Robert Browning and seen in Evangelion.
"Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd."
-Edith Sitwell (1887 - 1964), Taken Care Of ,1965
