Q
Falsehood is never so successful as when she baits her hook
with truth, and no opinions so fastly misled us as those
that are not wholly wrong, as no timepieces so effectually
deceive the wearer as those that are sometimes right.
Colton (1780-1832)
If I have been able to see further than others,
It is because I have stood on the shoulders of giants.
Sir Isaac Newton
When man is born, he is tender and weak.
At death, he is stiff and hard.
All things, the grass as well as trees,
are tender and supple while alive.
When dead, they are withered and dried.
Therefore the stiff and hard are companions of death.
The tender and the weak are companions of life.
- Lao-Tzu
The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind.
William Blake (1757-1828)

"We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers.
They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter's evening.
Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them;
nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine
and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true "
Woodrow Wilson
"It's about walls, it's about the walls we build up to protect ourselves,
and trying to create a facade that we think is more interseting than who we really are. And hiding those insecurities."

but I never knew that looking back on the times I've laughed, I would cry~"
"Don't go where the path may lead; go where there is no path and leave a trail."

"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself." George Bernard Shaw
"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing." Helen Keller

"All men and women are born, live suffer and die; what distinguishes us one from another is our dreams, whether they be dreams about worldly or unworldly things, and what we do to make them come about... We do not choose to be born. We do not choose our parents. We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth, or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing. We do not, most of us, choose to die; nor do we choose the time and conditions of our death. But within this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we live." Joseph Epstein
"Seek the wisdom of the ages, but look at the world through the eyes of a child." Ron Wild
"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

"Evil (ignorance) is like a shadow--it has no real substance of its own, it is simply a lack of light.

In order to cause a shadow to disappear, you must shine light on it." Shakti Gawain

"The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident." Sir Hugh Walpoe
When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge (Reading this makes me wonder how much sooner man could have walked on the moon...had we listened to a child's fantasies. It is truly a pity that so many lose their gift of imagination to the steady hum of the status quo.) Albert Einstein
I like the stars. It's the illusion of permanence, I think. I mean, they're always flaring up and caving in and going out. But from Here I can pretend... I can pretend that things last. I can pretend that lives last longer than moments. Gods come and Gods go. Mortals Flicker and flash and fade. Worlds don't last; and stars and galaxies are transient, fleeting things that twinkle like fireflies and vanish into cold and dust. But I can pretend. Olethros in Sandman
Destiny is not a matter of chance, but of choice, Not something to wish for, but to attain. William Jennings Bryan
Life is just a dream on the way to death. I believe there's a place where the restless souls wander, burdened by the weight of their own sadness. They wait for a chance to set the wrong things right. Only then can they be reunited with the ones they love. Sometimes, a crow shows them the way; because sometimes, love is stronger than death. The Crow, City of Angels
Show me a heart unfettered by foolish dreams And I'll show you a happy man But only in their dreams can man be truly free 'Twas always thus and always thus will be Spoken by John Keating Robbin Williams, Dead Poets Society
When I consider this carefully, I find not a single property which with certainty separates the waking state from the dream. How can you be certain that your whole life is not a dream? Descartes
... I don't know. Sometimes it would stop raining long enough for the stars to come out. Then it was nice ... It's like just before tha sun goes to bed down on the bay, those million sparkles on the water ... Like that mountain lake, it was so clear, Jenny, it looked like 2 skies, one on top of the other. And then in the desert when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heaven started and the earth begun. It's so beautiful ... Jenny, I may not be a smart man, but I know what love is. Forrest Gump
"There are mysteries about our love. Things that neither one of us may ever understand because love is an emotion without limit and understanding. We know we love each other but we could never explain completely as WHY we love each other. Love is not a clock. You simply cannot take it apart just to see what makes it tick, and even if you could, you probably could never get it back together again." anonymous
We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today. I don't think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great. If you're hung up on nostalgia, pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time. Art Buchwald
Love lasts when the relationship comes first.
There are many things in life that will catch your eye, but only a few will catch your heart... pursue those.
Love is friendship set on fire. Jeremy Taylor
Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them. Disagree with them. Glorify, or villafy them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. Think Different Apple

"...they think that I'm strange... they say that I'm a dreamer... but I don't complain, though I don't have much to call my own. I know a place where I keep the best of things.

"You say that I have no power? Perhaps you speak truly... But you say that Dreams have no power here? Tell me... what power would hell have if those here imprisoned were not able to dream of heaven?" Morpheus in Sandman
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ( Mark Twain)
The day we lose our need for dreams is the day the human race forfeits its soul. (John Chiam)
Love is like quicksilver in the hand. Leave the fingers open and it stays. Clutch is, and it darts away. Dorothy Parker

I know you can't stay, but part of you will never ever go away. I'll make a wish for you and hope it will come true; that life will be kind to such a gentle mind. And if you lose your way, think back on yesterday. Remember me this way."--Remember Me This Way
"you are one of the best things that's ever happened to me. you're my love and my best friend. And every day that goes by, it seems like i discover something new about you to love.
