"A man of words and not of deeds Is like a garden full of weeds And when the weeds begin to grow It's like a garden full of snow And when the snow begins to fall It's like a bird upon the wall And when the bird away does fly It's like an eagle in the sky And when the sky begins to roar It's like a lion at the door And when the door begins to crack It's like a stick across your back And when your back begins to smart It's like a penknife in your heart And when your heart begins to bleed You're dead, and dead, and dead indeed"; "My conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it..." American History X film. “We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic cords of memory will swell when again touched as surely they will be by the better angels of our nature.” - Abraham Lincoln "We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit" E. E. Cummings "Our past is a story existing only in our minds. Look, analyze, understand and forgive. Then, as quickly as possible, chuck it." -Marianne Williamson – "Do not look back and grieve over the past, for it is gone and do not be troubled about the future for it has yet to came. Live in the present and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering." – - Ida Scott Taylor -
"Do you ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it four years, like high-school? One year? Can your life change in a month or a week or a single day? We're always in a hurry, to grow up, to go places, to get ahead. But when you're young ONE hour cand change EVERYTHING." "They say we leave this world just the way we came into it naked and alone. So, if we leave with nothing, what, then, is the measure of a life? It it defined by the people we choose to love? Or is life simply measured by our accomplishments? And what if we fail? or are never truly loved? What then? Can we ever measure up? Or will the quiet desperation of a life gone wanting drive us mad?" "There seems to be a kind of order in the universe... in the movement of the stars and the turning of the Earth and the changing of the seasons. But human life is almost pure chaos. Everyone takes his stance, asserts his own right and feelings, mistaking the motives of others and his own." - Katherine Anne Porter “The hardest part of saying goodbye is having to do it again every single day. Every day we face the same truth that life is fleeting. That our time here is short and to honor the fallen. We must live our lives well.” “Life’s simple. You make choices and you don’t look back.” “La urma urmei in cate feluri poti distruge o inima si apoi sa te mai astepti sa bata?” – Luna noua “Dup spiro, spero!” - Cat timp respir, sper “People always leave.” “It doesn’t really matter as an kod or a man Cause the same thing can happen with a gun in your hand.” DMC What’s Wrong
STENDHAL “Life is too short and the time we waste in a yawning never can be regained.” (Viata este prea scurta, iar timpul petrecut plangandu-ne nu mai poate fi recuperat.) “Temperamentul melanncolic poate fi numit temperamentul iubirii” “Un om poate dobandi orice in singuratate cu exceptia caracterului.”
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more. Lord Byron, Childe Harold's Pilgrimage Rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness… give me truth. THOREAU
