"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion; when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing; when you see money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors; when you see that men get richer by graft and pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you; when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice; you may know that your society is doomed."

He who pull out to fast leave rubber behind

Boy with hole in pocket, feel cocky all day.

Man who drop watch in toilet bound to have shitty time

when lady say no, she mean maybe
when lady say maybe, she mean yes
when lady say yes, she no lady

Crowded elevator smells different to midget

He who fishes in another man's well often catches crab.

Boy who go to bed with sex problem wake up with solution in hand.

—Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition?? - Steve Jobs

—Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts?? - Winston Churchill

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail - Ralph Waldo Emerson

It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are - e. e. cummings

"I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod." - Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill

In honor of the upcoming ridiculous hallmark holiday that i still shamefully love...

—I want to see you.

Know your voice.

Recognize you when you
first come 'round the corner.

Sense your scent when I come
into a room you've just left.

Know the lift of your heel,
the glide of your foot.

Become familiar with the way
you purse your lips
then let them part,
just the slightest bit,
when I lean in to your space
and kiss you.

I want to know the joy
of how you whisper
"more??
?? Rumi

E. E. Cummings - you being in love...

you being in love
will tell who softly asks in love,

am i separated from your body smile brain hands merely
to become the jumping puppets of a dream? oh i mean:
entirely having in my careful how
careful arms created this at length
inexcusable, this inexplicable pleasure-you go from several
persons: believe me that strangers arrive
when i have kissed you into a memory
slowly, oh seriously
-that since and if you disappear

solemnly
myselves
ask "life, the question how do i drink dream smile

and how do i prefer this face to another and
why do i weep eat sleep-what does the whole intend"
they wonder. oh and they cry "to be, being, that i am alive
this absurd fraction in its lowest terms
with everything cancelled
but shadows
-what does it all come down to? love? Love
if you like and i like,for the reason that i
hate people and lean out of this window is love,love
and the reason that i laugh and breathe is oh love and the reason
that i do not fall into this street is love."

Me= It's not the time spent learning that matters, but the things you've learnt being well spent.( The world is but a movie, we play the roles others choose for us by hiding ourselves in character). Expectations are the chains that bind us and keep us from realizing our full potential.

A quote that has just come to me now from a long standing friend and partner ( not partner in the relationship wise way but in a another way I cant explain)

Make it work for you

Simple, yet very effective in that any situation you find yourself in you must make it work for you lest you only have yourself to blame if it doesnt work out for you, you see.

—We all need someone to look at us. we can be divided into four categories according to the kind of look we wish to live under. the first category longs for the look of an infinite number of anonymous eyes, in other words, for the look of the public. the second category is made up of people who have a vital need to be looked at by many known eyes. they are the tireless hosts of cocktail parties and dinners. they are happier than the people in the first category, who, when they lose their public, have the feeling that the lights have gone out in the room of their lives. this happens to nearly all of them sooner or later. people in the second category, on the other hand, can always come up with the eyes they need. then there is the third category, the category of people who need to be constantly before the eyes of the person they love. their situation is as dangerous as the situation of people in the first category. one day the eyes of their beloved will close, and the room will go dark. and finally there is the fourth category, the rarest, the category of people who live in the imaginary eyes of those who are not present. they are the dreamers.??

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

"She was born wild and curious.

A cage is no place for someone like that.

I play with the fire on my own truth, she told me

I will burn for the things I love."
