Alan Moore: My experience...

My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it`s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you`re lucky.
/Alan Moore/

Mahatma Gandhi: Where there...

Where there is love there is life.
/Mahatma Gandhi/

Freedom is the byproduct of the reflective life in action.Contemplate, Ruminate, Activate.Heart + Hands. Mind + Movement.I am committed to aligned action, because praxis is the highest form of humanity

Stefan Collini: In trying...

In trying to justify the humanities, as in trying to live a life, what may turn out to matter most is holding one`s nerve.

Jo Leigh: That`s what...

That`s what got her, of course. That everyone thought it so unbelievable that she could possibly attract a man like him. It shouldn`t upset her because it was true. She couldn`t. Not in this world, in this lifetime. Yet she didn`t appreciated everyone else acting as if they were the most improbable twosome since Quasimodo hit on Esmeralda.
/Jo Leigh/

Ann Voskamp: They say...

They say time is money, but that`s not true. Time is life. And if I want the fullest life, I need to find fullest time... the busyness of your life leaving little room for the source of your life...God gives us time. And who has time for God?Which makes no sense.

Dean Ray Koontz: When I...

When I was no longer of the world, I would miss its extravagant beauty. I would miss the complex and charming layers of subterfuge by which the truth of the world`s mysteries were withheld from us even as we were tantalized and enchanted by them. I would miss the kindness of good people who were compassionate when so many were pitiless, who made their way through so much corruption without being corrupted themselves, who eschewed envy in a world of envy, who eschewed greed in a world of greed, who valued truth and could not be drowned in a sea of lies, for they shone and, by the light they cast, they warmed me all my life.
/Dean Ray Koontz/

Gabriel Chevallier: I carry...

I carry my liberty with me. It is in my thoughts, in my head. Shakespeare is one of my countries, Goethe another. You can change that badge that I wear, but you can`t change the way I think. It is through my intellect that I can escape the roles, intrusions, and obligations with which every civilisation, every community would burden me. I make myself my own homeland through my affinities, my choices, my ideas, and no one can take it away from me ? I may even be able to enlarge it. I don`t spend my life in the company of crowds but individuals. If I could pick fifty individuals from each nation, then perhaps I could put together a society I?d be happy with. My first possession is myself; better to sent it into exile than to lose it, to change a few habits rather than terminate my role as a human being. We only have one homeland: the world.
/Gabriel Chevallier/

Grief and tragedy and hatred are only for a time. Goodness, remembrance and love have no end, and the Lord of life holds all who die and all who mourn.

That`s one of the remarkable things about life. It`s never so bad that it can`t get worse.
/Bill Watterson/

Marie Brennan: Your people...

Your people understand the forest: how the animals behave, where to find them, and so on. I want something similar?but instead of the forest as a whole, I want to understand dragons. They are not only here, you know; there are dragons in the savannah?? Mekeesawa nodded. ?Well, there are more than that, all over the world. They live in the mountains and on the plains and maybe even in the ocean. I want to know them as you know the creatures of this forest.??But why?? Mekeesawa asked. His eyes were still merry with laughter, but his question was serious. ?You don`t live in all those places.?With the amount of time I have spent traveling in my life, one might make the argument that I do live in all those places, if only temporarily. But Mekeesawa?s point was a good one, and not easily dismissed. The Moulish understood the creatures of the Green Hell because their survival depended on it; my survival did not depend on my traveling the globe to find dragons. (Indeed, it has on more than one occasion nearly been detrimental to my life expectancy.) How could I answer him?Thinking back on the matter now, it is possible my only true answer to that question is now in its second volume, with more to come. These memoirs are not only an accounting of my life; they are an accounting *for* it.

John Cleese: This parrot...

This parrot is no more. It has ceased to be. It`s expired and gone to meet its maker. This is a late parrot. It`s a stiff. Bereft of life, it rests in peace. If you hadn`t nailed it to the perch, it would be pushing up the daisies. It`s rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-parrot.
/John Cleese/

Jarod Kintz: A brick...

A brick could be an object to measure your life against. Are you square, rigid, and inflexible? If yes, are you in the military? If no, why are you acting like a brick??
/Jarod Kintz/

Lorraine Heath: He took...

He took the hand that wasn`t holding the bou­quet of wildflowers and stared at it, holding it so tightly that she thought he might crack her bones. Then his hold gentled. He slipped a gold ring onto her finger and lifted his gaze to hers.?I`m not a brave man; I?ll never be a hero, but I love you more than life itself, and I will until the day I die. With you by my side, I`m a better man than I`ve ever been alone. I`m scared to death that I?ll let you down, but I won`t run this time. I?ll stand firm and face the challenge and work hard to see that you never have any regrets. You told me once that you wanted to share a corner of my dream. Without you, Amelia, I have no dream. With you, I have everything I could ever dream of wanting.?Tears burned her eyes as he glanced back at the preacher. ?I`m done.?-Houston to Amelia as his wedding vow.

I am not the easiest guy to live with. It is probably the lack of stability in my life.

Do not waste your time and life, searching for a job. Utilize your special skills to begin your own work.

P.C. Cast: Give me...

Give me strength, not to be better than my enemies, but to defeat my greatest enemy, the doubts within myself. Give me strength for a straight back and clear eyes, so when life fades, as the setting sun, my spirit may come to you without shame.
/P.C. Cast/

Stephen R. Covey: Trust is...

Trust is the glue of life. It`s the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It`s the foundational principle that holds all relationships.
/Stephen R. Covey/

Fanny Imlay Godwin: Whilst I...

Whilst I read I am a poet. I am inspired with good feelings?feelings that create perhaps a more permanent good in me than all the everyday preachments in the world; it counteracts the dross which one gives on the everyday concerns of life, and tells us there is something yet in the world to aspire to?something by which succeeding ages may be made happy and perhaps better.
/Fanny Imlay Godwin/

Amythyst Raine-Hatayama: So many...

So many people throughout my life have told me who I am, what I must do, what I can`t do, what I have to complete, and what I will never be able to accomplish...and then I met the Goddess. ~ Amythyst Raine-Hatayama
/Amythyst Raine-Hatayama/

Werner Heisenberg: In the...

In the history of science, ever since the famous trial of Galileo, it has repeatedly been claimed that scientific truth cannot be reconciled with the religious interpretation of the world. Although I an now convinced that scientific truth is unassailable in its own field, I have never found it possible to dismiss the content of religious thinking as simply part of an outmoded phase in the consciousness of mankind, a part we shall have to give up from now on, Thus in the course of my life I have repeatedly been compelled to ponder on the relationship of these two regions of though, for I have never been able to doubt the reality of that to which they point.
/Werner Heisenberg/

Life is full of disparate details arbitrarily joined together by dreams, pain and yearning. I do not long for sense, but I call for emotion and imagination amidst this chaos.

Lev Grossman: [F]or just...

[F]or just one second, look at your life and see how perfect it is. Stop looking for the next secret door that is going to lead you to your real life. Stop waiting. This is it: there`s nothing else. It`s here, and you`d better decide to enjoy it or you`re going to be miserable wherever you go, for the rest of your life, forever.
/Lev Grossman/

Gillian Flynn: Soul mates....

Soul mates. They really call themselves that, which makes sense, because I guess they are ... They have no harsh edges with each other, no spiny conflicts, they ride though life like conjoined jellyfish - expanding and contracting instinctively, filling each other`s spaces liquidly. Making it look easy.
/Gillian Flynn/

Work is life, you know, and without it, there's nothing but fear and insecurity.
/John Lennon/

Darynda Jones: I was...

I was never really certain why he scared the bejesus out of me. Nothing scared me growing up. I`ve been playing with dead people since the day I was born, so it`s good thing, yet the Big Bad scared me. Which brings me to the reason I called.? ?Which was to give me nightmares for the rest of my life?? ?Oh, no, that?s just a plus. Why was I so scared of him?? ?Hon, for one thing he was this powerful, massive, black smokelike being.??So, you`re saying I`m a racist?
/Darynda Jones/
