How do I know what I think until I see what I write.
~Unknown

Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up.
James Baldwin

People who shut their eyes to reality simply invite their own destruction, and anyone who insists on remaining in a state of innocence long after innocence is dead turns himself into a monster.

~James Baldwin~

The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating -- in work, in play, in love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation. To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.'

~ Anne Morriss

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

~Albert Einstein

When you stay awake, you see the sun. Anywhere you are, you have to make it your paradise.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.

~Scoop

A government which robs Peter to
pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.

A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.

Live with your toes digging into the earth, with your eyes open wide, and your heart warm. This way you won't miss a thing little one. :)

~Scoop

The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge.

~Daniel J. Boorstin

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

~Steve Jobs

Art is a microscope which the artist fixes on the secrets of his soul, and shows to people these secrets which are common to all.

~Leo Tolstoy

I'd rather be busy than bored;
I'd rather burn out than rust out.

~Johnny Mandolin

We are all we are all the time.

~Karin Wilson of YardEdge.net

Whatever you ardently desire,
Sincerely believe in,
Vividly imagine, and
Enthusiastically act upon,
Must inevitably come to pass.

- Sybil Leek, Diary of a Witch

of the people by the people for the people.

Ivan Panin

Remember to play after every storm.

~Mattie Stepanek~

The most original thing you've ever come across is actually yourself.

~Saul Williams~

Why fight it?
Be seduced by your purpose.

is not an illusion. The tunnel is.

~unknown~

Fear is just another word for ignorance
...
Freedom is something that dies unless it's used

~Hunter S. Thompson~

The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.

~Marcel Proust~

Unexpected beauty in life shatters our monument to suffering.

~Scoop 2001~

Once you label me, you negate me.

~Kierkegard~

The worst realities of our age are manufactured realities. It is therefore our task, as creative participants in the universe, to re dream our world. The fact of possessing imagination means that everything can be re dreamed. Each reality can have it.

~Ben Okri~

Cautionary actions to prevent future pain or loss may also function as obstacles to any happiness you could have presently.

~Berette Macaulay~

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections.

~unknown~

We shall not cease from exploration, but at the end of all of our exploring will be to return to the place from which we originated and to know it for the first time.

~T.S. Elliot~

Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’?

Great ideas are no different from useless thoughts until they are put to use.

~Kynan Cooke, 1994~

In life you don't get what you deserve, you get what you negotiate.

~anonymous~

It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before, to test your limits, to break through barriers. And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

~Anais Nin~

Choosing to live in narrow spaces leads to a form of mental agoraphobia, and that brings its own terrors. …the willfully unimaginative see more monsters, they are often more afraid.

~JK Rowling~

Chance has never yet satisfied the hope of a suffering people.

~Marcus Garvey~

The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.

~Elbert Hubbard~

a simple guide:

~Robert Holden~

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

~Bertrand Russell~

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

~John Lennon~

Being proactive instead of reactive always lessens the pressures of adversity.

~Kevin C. Robinson~

There are times, however, and this is one of them, when even being right feels wrong. What do you say, for instance, about a generation that has been taught that rain is poison and sex is death? If making love might be fatal and if a cool spring breeze on any summer afternoon can turn a crystal blue lake into a puddle of black poison right in front of your eyes, there is not much left except TV and relentless masturbation. It's a strange world. Some people get rich and others eat shit and die.

~Hunter S. Thompson, 1988~

Every time you don't follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.

~Shakti Gawain~

Can you get over
Something you truly enjoy
And if indeed, why?

~Mystic Urchin~

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.

~William Shakespeare, "Hamlet"~

There are indeed a thousand ways of acquiring an opinion that have nothing to do with rational thinking.

~R.J. Hollingdale~

There is need to sway
Naked Rhythm summons blues
Wind and Whispers dance.

~Mystic Urchin~

Chill out somewhere for a minute. Things get clearer when you get quiet.

~Scoop~

Love is rarer than genius itself. And friendship is rarer than love.

~Charles Peguy~

We are so accustomed
to disguising ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.

~Francois de La Rochefoucauld~

A man is not an orange. You can't eat the fruit and throw the peel away.

~Arthur Miller~

There is no truth; everything is permitted.

~William S. Burroughs~

Nothing is true or false but thinking makes it so. You believe you have appeased the thunder and lightening and the ground that grows your grain; you believe it, you have.

For the limits of the world.

Nature Will Hold You
Live within Integrity
Sweet Dew Forever

~Ku by Scoop~

No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.
~Hunter S. Thompson~

I refuse to lose my mind to the sadness locked in the illusion of my finitude.

~Chuma and Fiswe~

fear of mediocrity creates it by narrowing your vision of yourself. get as far away from fear as you can by daring your ass to face it everyday.

~Berette Macaulay~

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming -WOO HOO what a ride! ~JAH – E~

Kill the arrogance. It will never serve you in the long run - as ultimately it acts as an inhibitor.

~Berette Macaulay~

Desire is a magnificent nomadic energy.

~Scoop, inspired by Nietzche~

Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.

~Lou Holtz~

There’s no great genius without some touch of madness.

Live for the truth or lie
What are the consequences?
RECIPROCITY

~Ku by Scoop~

The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over.

Water marks the way,
We wander thru wet slipways,
Happy to be damp.

“Caution is the death of Creativity”

Let your deeds themselves praise you, for here I leave them
in all their glory, lacking words to extol them.
