The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown” ~H.P Lovecraft A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world. ~ Oscar Wilde Do not lose hold of your dreams or asprirations. For if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live.” ~ Henry David Thoreau A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. ~Albert Einstein Life is not anything, but an opportunity for something. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe After silence, that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music. ~ Aldous Huxley There are things known and there are things unknown, and in between are the doors of perception. ~ Aldous Huxley Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable. - George Bernard Shaw A minute of perfection was worth the effort. A moment was the most you could ever expect. Chuck Palahniuk Almost nobody dances sober, unless they happen to be insane. — H.P. Lovecraft In the end, its not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away. He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed. -Albert Einstein Heres to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round heads in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. Theyre not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you cant do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the ones who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. -Jack Kerouac There is a time for departure even when theres no certain place to go. -Tennessee Williams “Ive learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”- Maya Angelou To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that’s all. -Oscar Wilde “Society exists only as a mental concept; in the real world there are only individuals.” Oscar Wilde The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. Thats the only lasting thing you can create. —Chuck Palahniuk
