“She is the pining of my heart!”
“Nothing matters in life unless you chase your dream!”
“When the world s on the Way, they use horses to haul manure. When the world gets off the Way, they breed warhorses on the common. The greatest evil: wanting more. The worst luck: discontent. Greed s the curse of life. To know enough s enough is enough to know.”
“Somehow, for many people rumors are more desirable than the truth. In fact, rumors often sound more attractive than the truth.”
“Let us not be divided by the color of our skin, but be united by the color of our blood.”
“Each person must develop a wholesome personal response to enduring the hardships of daily life and witnessing the discord, disharmony, dissension, and suffering of the world. We can either become an emotional hypochondriac or accept the fact that we are insignificant in a desolate and meaningless world. How we respond to the vale of tears until we shuffle off this mortal coil imbrues poetic meaning to our life.”
“I seek to use the tools of the mind to overcome a narcissistic self and attain self-mastery. I aspire to engage in self-cultivation by making practical usage of the process of enduring privations, overcoming challenges, and rejecting illicit temptations in order to gain fortitude, courage, and wisdom. I shall reflect upon grievous personal mistakes and embrace the concept of repentance as a lifelong growth process through which humankind conscientiously learns to make better choices by forsaking vice, immorality, and wickedness. I must also unreservedly embrace fate by perceiving everything that happens in life including suffering and loss as good, and affirm a life filled with indignity, sorrow, and tragedy. I can only discover happiness – a meaning, purpose, comprehensible truth, and essential value of existence – by living with dignity in the face of absurdity. When we affirm all aspects of being, we enjoy a tranquil existence.”
“We can read a book to learn how to live. Alternatively, akin to any weeping philosopher seeking self-realization, we can look inside ourselves to determine right from wrong. Ethics is not a matter of surveying scripture to determine what constitutes virtuous behavior. A person with high moral character must think about life and act in accordance with their conscientious conclusion(s). My faith is in free will and the ability of a moral person to discern good versus evil, not a person’s ability to describe the intentions of whatever deity his or her faith chooses to worship. Simply put, the godhead exists inside me as a spiritual manifestation that embodies people’s innate desire to go forth and multiply, dance in the Etesian wind, and make an artistic testament to the primacy of his or her existence by their honorable performance of worthy deeds.”
“Why do you give so much of yourself to a person? Does this person really need it? Isn t it a contradiction of life that when you love someone so much that you overwhelm them with too much of yourself? You want to spend more time with this person. You want to keep messaging this person. You want to know what they are doing every minute of their life! If you truly love someone then you should set them free. Give them the freedom to be themself!”
“They asked me: why you are not patient?, which I answered: I am patient, however I have a war against time!”
“They asked me: why you are not patient?, which I answered: I am very patient, however I just in war against time!”
“He asked me: why you are not patient?; I answered: I am very patient, however I just in war against time!”
“like Roland Barthes said in The Fashion System, those who exclude themselves from fashion, which is a social fact, suffer a sanction: the stigma of being unfashionable.”
“Out beyond the ideas of Life and Death, there lives a poet trying to find the world between the breaths. With each Inhale he writes the songs of life and with each exhale he lets it out like a death.”
“It does no good to clean up spilled milk if you are still pouring it out of the carton.”
“Any person is an adept time traveler, if they love people, rejoice in nature, their working charter is to be kind, ethical, compassionate, and they live to preserve the dignity and reduce the pain of other people.”
“You and I may be near or far away from each other. But darling you and I are soulmates! And soulmates are always together in body, mind, heart, and soul!”
