I am glad I was not born before tea."~~Rev. Sidney Smith "There's something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man."~~Winston Churchill "I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the kindness of human beings. I am so absorbed in the wonder of earth and the life upon it that I cannot think of heaven and angels." ~~Pearl S. Buck "My heart always told me that people are inherently good. My experience suggests otherwise...It is what they do that makes them good or bad. A moment of love, even in a bad man, can give meaning to a life. None of us knows whose path will lead us to God." "I have reflected many times upon our rigid search. It has shown me that everything is illuminated in the light of the past. It is always along the side of us, on the inside, looking out. Like you say, inside out... in this way, I will always be along the side of your life. And you will always be along the side of mine. " ~~Alex ("Everything is Illuminated") "Seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: t...Expand for more
o be free, to be receptive, to have no goal."~~Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha "And now my fur has turned to skin And I've been quickly ushered in To a world that, I confess, I do not know" ~~Blitzen Trapper ("Furr") "Music...is a memory bank for finding one's way about the world."~~quote off of a Derek Trucks CD leaflet "And this you can know--fear the time when Manself will not suffer and die for a concept, for this one quality is the foundation of Manself, and this one quality is man, distinctive in the universe." ~~John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath Sam: You don't like raisins? Joon: Not really. Sam: Why? Joon: They used to be fat and juicy and now they're twisted. They had their lives stolen. Well, they taste sweet, but really they're just humiliated grapes. I can't say I am a big supporter of the raisin council. Sam: Did you see those, those raisins on TV? The ones that sing and dance and stuff? Joon: They scare me. Sam: Yeah me too Joon: It's sick. The commercial people they make them sing and dance so people will eat them. Sam: It's a shame about raisins. Joon: Cannibals. "I dont get many things right the first time In fact, I am told that a lot Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls Brought me here" ~~Ben Folds Five ("The Lucky One") "Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth." ~~Orson Welles ("F for Fake") "This path is stupid, it goes in spirals, perhaps in circles, but whichever way it goes, I will follow it." ~~Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha".
