| Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Posted: 6/22/2006 11:31:39 PM | I ought to grieve, but cannot what I ought;
I mourn the lover, not lament the fault;
I view my crime, but kindle at the view,
Repent old pleasures, and solicit new;
and
How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!

Posted: 6/24/2006 12:44:32 PM | And think not you can direct the course of love, for love, if it finds you worthy, directs your course.
OR...
Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love.
both quotes from Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931), The Prophet | |

Posted: 7/12/2006 6:46:21 AM | LOVE IS SO NOT ABOUT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON

Posted: 9/9/2006 9:32:04 PM | See him wasted on the sidewalk, in his jacket and his jeans
Wearing yesterday's misfortunes like a smile;
Once he had a future full of money, love and dreams
Which he spent like they was going out of style;
And he keeps right on a changin, for the better or the worse,
Searching for a shrine he's never found;
Never knowing if believing is a blessing or a curse,
Or if the going up was worth the coming down"
~Kris Kristofferson~

Posted: 9/16/2006 5:10:08 PM | Here is a few I have tonight:
"Choose such pleasures as recreates much and cost little." Fuller
"Thy credit wary keep, 'tis quickly gone:
Being got by many actions, lost by one." Randolph
Here is another one of Bill's on the Lover:
"Doubt thou the stars are fire!
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love." Shakespear
I thought I would also share with you a quote about quotations:
"Some for renown on scraps of learning dote
And think they grow immartal as they quote.
To patchwork learn'd quotations are allied,
But strive to make our poverty our pride." Young | |
