Light travels faster than anything, but it is wrong. No matter how fast light travels, it finds darkness has always gotten there first.

-Terry Pratchett (Criminal Minds)

Make noise! Get attention or get run over by a car.

It’s like brain surgery on a butterfly with butter and a hammer.

Seize the moment. Remember all those women on the Titanic who waved off the dessert cart. - Erma Bombeck

 

If I were you I wouldn't share that with your friends. Before you know it, you will be taking care of them instead of yourself.

She dances.

She sings.

She takes, she gives.

She serves.

She loves and creates.

She dissents.

She enlivens.

She sees.

She grows.

She sweats.

She changes.

She learns.

She laughs.

She sheds her skin.

She bleeds on the pages of her days.

She walks through walls.

 

She lives with intention.

Oklahoma City Bombing Team 5   4/19/1995

We search for the truth

We seek justice

The courts require it

The victims cry for it

And God demands it

-Saving Grace-

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

Tom Stoppard, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

H.L. Mencken: "Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats."

All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.
Anatole France – (Criminal Minds)

Fall in love or fall in hate;

Get inspired or be depressed.

Ace a test or flunk a class.

Make babies or make art.

Speak the truth or lie and cheat.

Dance on tables or sit in the corner.

Life is divine chaos. Embrace it.

Forgive yourself.

Breathe.

And enjoy the ride...

-Anon

If we know each others secrets, what comforts we shall find....

I like my feelings pushed down. Compressed. So that they can come out at random and completely inappropriate times.

Pioneers! O Pioneers!

Pioneers! O Pioneers!

COME my tan-faced children,

Follow well in order, get your weapons ready,

Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes?

Pioneers! O pioneers!

For we cannot tarry here,

We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger,

We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend,

Pioneers! O pioneers!

O you youths, Western youths,

So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship,

Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping with the foremost,

Pioneers! O pioneers!

-Walt Whitman-
