The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.

Here's one that I absolutely love:

"The most preposterous notion that Homo Sapiens have ever dreamed up is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharine adoration of His creatures, can be swayed by their prayers and becomes petulant if He does not receive this flattery. Yet this absurd fantasy, without a shred of evidence to bolster it, pays all the expenses of the oldest, largest, and least productive industry in all history." -Robert A. Heinlein

Amen to that brother!

What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.
--Ralph Waldo Emerson


I love Emerson...

Always do what you are afraid to do.

I wish to say what I think and feel today, with the proviso that tomorrow perhaps I shall contradict it all.

first, great ones Divine! I'll add them to my collection

My fav Ursula LeGuin:
"It is good to have an end to journey toward, but it is the journey that matters in the end."

"The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty; not knowing what comes next. "

And one that I wll not apologize for and cannot retract tomorrow because I didn't say it:

"To me the "female principle" is, or at least historically has been, basically anarchic. It values order without constraint, rule by custom not by force. It has been the male who enforces order, who constructs power structures, who makes, enforces, and breaks laws."

Any comments or quotes that might relate to that last one?

So here's my favorite, since it voices exactly my opinion about System of a Down:

“Do you ever look to the sky and think, I’m glad I’m alive? After I heard System of a Down, I thought, I’m actually alive to hear the shittiest band of all time. Which is quite something when you think about it. Of all the bands that have gone before and all the bands that’ll be in the future, I was around when the worst was around.”
~Noel Gallagher

And here's the funny one:

"`... then I decided that I was a lemon for a couple of weeks. I kept myself amused all that time jumping in and out of a gin and tonic.'
Arthur cleared his throat, and then did it again.
`Where,' he said, `did you...?'
`Find a gin and tonic?' said Ford brightly. `I found a small lake that thought it was a gin and tonic, and jumped in and out of that. At least,I think it thought it was a gin and tonic.'
`I may,' he added with a grin which would have sent sane men scampering into the trees, `have been imagining it.'"
-- Ford updating Arthur about what he's been doing for the past four years.
from Life the Universe and Everything by Douglas Adams.
