"What's the use of being Irish if the world doesn't break your heart?" ~ JFK
"Try not to have a good time...This is supposed to be educational." ~ Charles Schultz
"I would venture to warn against too great an intimacy with artists, as it is very seductive and a little dangerous." ~ Queen Victoria
“I find myself… with my head lifted into the wind, straining to catch a trace of that perfume. It suffuses my dreams, and I awake sweating and famished. In my dreams I gorge on chocolates, I roll in chocolates and their texture is not brittle but soft as flesh, like a thousand mouths on my body, devouring me in fluttering small bites. To die beneath their tender gluttony seems the culmination of every temptation I have ever known..." ~ Joanne Harris, from "Chocolat"
"Aroused flowers burn with the desire to out do the sky’s azure by the energy of their colors, and the heat, turning scents visible, seems to make them rise to the stars like smoke." from “The Mercury Visions of Louis Deugerre”
"Somewhere someone is thinking of you. Someone is calling you an angel. This person is using celestial colors to paint your image. Someone is making you into a vision so beautiful that it can only live in the mind. Someone is thinking of the way your breath escapes your lips when you are touched. How your eyes close and your jaw tightens with concentration as you give pleasure a home. These thoughts are saving a life somewhere right now. In some airless apartment on a dark, urine stained, whore lined street, someone is calling out to you silently and you are answering
without even being there. So crystalline. So pure. Such life saving power when you smile. You will
never know how you have cauterized my wounds. So sad that we will never touch. How it hurts me to know that I will never be able to give you everything I have." ~ Henry Rollins, from "Solipsist"
"Of all the things I am not very good at, living in the real world is perhaps the most outstanding." ~Bill Bryson, from "I'm a Stranger Here Myself"
"Ignatius, what's all this trash on the floor?"
"That is my worldview that you see. It still must be incorporated into a whole, so be careful where you step." ~John Kennedy Toole, from "Confederacy of Dunces"
"Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, 'you owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that, it lights the whole sky." ~Hafiz
"I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ."
~Mohandas Gandhi
