Have the courage
to stand alone
when you
must.
No matter
how sparse your
branches,
no matter
how dark the night,
stand tall
and damn
the rest.

though nothing can bring back the hour
of splendor in the grass
glory of the flower
We will grieve not
rather find strength in
what remains behind.

Sometimes the best
thing you can do is
not think, not wonder,
not imagine,
not obsess. Just
breathe, and have
faith that everything
will work out for
the best.

"You must always be intoxicated.
That sums it all up; It's the only question. In order
to feel the horrible burden of time which breaks you
and bends you down to Earth, you must be unrimittedly
intoxicated.
But on what? wine,poetry, virtue, as you please,
Never be sober.
And if it should chance that sometimes, on the street or palace,
on the green grass of a ditch, in the bleak solace
of your room, you wake and in your intoxication has
already diminished or disappeared, ask the wind, the wave,
the star, the bird,
the clock, ask everything that flees, everything that groans,
everything that rolls, everything that sings, everything that speaks,
ask them what time is it? and the wind, the wave, the star,
the bird, the clock, reply;
It's time to be intoxicated!
if you do not wish to be
one of the tortured slaves of time;
never be sober; never ever be sober!
Use wine or virtue, as you please."
by Charles Baudelaire

"Do not say things. What
you are stands over you
the while, and thunders
so that I cannot hear
what you say
to the contrary."

To be doing the right thing'
whether what is right eventually
comes to pass being of no concern;
to abhor ignorance in action,
to regard perfection as the
norm of Heaven.

You sure you don't have Miss Emily whispering in your ear,
she writes as you do.

"When the country goes temporarily to the dogs, cats must learn to be circumspect, walk on fences, sleep in trees, and have faith that all the woofing is not the last word. Hang on, another chapter follows." Garrison Keillor

It's true, we do.Back to "Quote of the Day"
"At an average of 80 beats per minute, most of us will manage less than four billion beats in our lives. But you don't die because you run out of heartbeats – you run out of heartbeats because you die. Among mammals, the number of heartbeats over the lifespan of different species is fairly constant."
