Quotations :


""The lie is ephemeral. It rises out of the mist of life, does its damage and then slips away with time, forgiveness or forgetfullness. But its seed is a solid object. A hard and painful thing lodged in the mind of the receiver. The lie begets doubt, and that doubt is redoubled with every subsequent lie whispered in the hope of keeing the truth dear and hidden. Lies harm. Doubt destroys like cancer: slow and steady, with pain and sorrow littering its wake."

T.A. Morlan


"Because I do not hope to turn again...
Because I do not hope
Because I do not hope to turn
Desiring this man’s gift and that man’s scope
I no longer strive to strive towards such things"

T.S. Eliot


"We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness."

Orwell


"We're gonna flash fly this mutha!"

"Overture,Curtain,Lights! This is it, the night of nights. And oh, what heights we'll hit! On with the show this is it! ... Tonight what heights we'll hit... on with the show this is it!"

“Think for yourself, question authority. Throughout human history, as our species has faced the frightening, terrorizing fact that we do not know who we are, or where we are going in this ocean of chaos, it has been the authorities, the political, the religious, the educational authorities who attempted to comfort us by giving us order, rules, regulations, informing, forming in our minds their view of reality. To think for yourself you must question authority and learn how to put yourself in a state of vulnerable, open-mindedness; chaotic, confused, vulnerability to inform yourself. Think for yourself, question authority."

Timothy Leary


"Born with a mustache and a supernova, tossed off the cliffs of Dover; washed up on a faraway shore in the arms of the daughter of the buffalo... Swallower of Planets, the Profits of Doom!"

Clutch


"And then he was fully socketed to her, like a pipe wrench in a crock of warm chili."

Robert K. Tenenbaum.


"Watch, Fat Friar, as I put a clothyard shaft through his wishbone!"


Daffy Duck as Robin hood



"Sorry, Venkman, I'm terrified beyond the capacity for rational thought"

Egon Spengler



"Seymor Krelborn... Sweety, honey, baby... pussycat... sweetheart, dollface... boobalah! My name is Bernstein..."

Bernstein



"She said Im fine, Im okay cover up your trembling hands
Theres indecision when you know you aint got nothing left
When the good times never stay
And the cheap thrills always seem to fade away
When will we fall
When will we fall down."

Toad the Wet Sprocket


"Against stupidity the very gods themselves contend in vain."

Friedrich Schiller


"Are we the ocean? Are we the desert? Are we the garbage? Who's to say?"

Clutch


"In a hundred years our stars' lights forgotten
Names from lack of use faded specifics
Of you and I swallowed,
Lost on the horizon of progression's
Succession of lost moments strung together."

T. A. Morlan


"We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us and we drown."
