So if you care to find me/Look to the western sky/As someone told me lately/Everyone deserves the chance to fly!/And if I'm flying solo/At least I'm flying free/Tell those who'd ground me/Take a message back from me/Tell them how I am defying gravity!/I'm flying high defying gravity/And soon I'll match them in renown./And nobody in all of Oz/No Wizard that there is or was/Is ever gonna bring me down!/

Your secret is your prisoner; once you reveal it, you become its slave.

We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe.

Johann von Goethe, attributed; u

In his youth, he was electrified. The stars were moving in his bloodstream. He would not have been cowed by the customs of an earthly monarch. When he loved, it was with a heat and a desperation that he carried like a sword. He loved in the way that Greeks burned cities.

Brenna Yovanoff

To me, it seems a dreadful indignity to have a soul controlled by geography.

George Santayana
