I'm so tired, but I can't sleep...standing on the edge of something much too deep...funny how I feel so much but cannot say a word...we are screaming inside, oh, but we can't be heard...so afraid to love you, more afraid to lose...clinging to a past

Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Happiness hates the timid! So does science!

Eugene O'Neill, Strange Interlud

What these people were trying to create or re-create here in this new world is beyond me. I can't put myself in their minds or their hearts, but I can sympathize with their struggle for an identity, with their puzzlement, which has troubled Americans from the very beginning - Who are we, where do we fit in, where are we going?

Nelson Demille

It's lies. It's all lies. Some of them are just prettier than others, that's all. People see what they think is there.

Terry Pratchett

The law of God, as quite plainly expressed in woman's construction, is this: There shall be no limit put upon your intercourse with the other sex sexually, at any time of life. During twenty-three days in every month (in the absence of pregnancy) from the time a woman is seven years old till she dies of old age, she is ready for action, and competent. As competent as the candlestick is to receive the candle. Competent every day, competent every night. Also, she wants that candle -- yearns for it, longs for it, hankers after it, as commanded by the law of God in her heart.

Mark Twain

It's not some great work of beauty and love to be a rock-and-roll singer.

Robert Plant

The United States is not, and never will be, at war with Islam.

Barack Obama

I'm going to get up every morning at 6:30 to work out. Then, when I've kept with it all week, I give myself something I really want, like a new handbag or a piece of jewelry I'm coveting.

Molly Sims

A doctrinaire is a fool but an honest man.

Lord Melbourne

A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short.

Andre Maurois

Never seem wiser, nor more learned, than the people you are with. Wear your learning, like your watch, in a private pocket: and do not merely pull it out and strike it; merely to show that you have one.

Lord Chesterfield

Siddhartha has one single goal-to become empty, to become empty of thirst, desire, dreams, pleasure and sorrow-to let the Self die. No longer to be Self, to experience the peace of an emptied heart, to experience pure thought-that was his goal.

Hermann Hesse
