"Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." - Ralph Waldo Emerson |
Lights such as love require more faith than fuel.
Of all leaps, the most dangerous is into the mind of your lover. Regarding miracles: What is less explicable than Remaining in love through the long icy anguish of anger? All lovers long for freedom only slightly less than they fear it. In the end, love burns not desire but fear. Not one of us would be capable of keeping the fire burning Except for the knowledge that it is the sweetest, best, and most beautiful thing in our lives. Dimitri Shostakovich |
-Voltaire
God is a comedian playing to an audience that is afraid to laugh. |
I have a button that says this.
"Everything happens for a reason, and the reason is God needs a good laugh."

A happy life is one spent in learning, earning, and yearning.

"If you are a dreamer, come in. If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, a hoper, a prayer, a magicbean buyer. If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire, for we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in!" -Shel Silverstein

"This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but with a whimper." -T.S. Eliot

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. |
"To me, horror is when I see somebody lying. I mean a person I know. A friend. And he's telling me something that I accept. And then suddenly, as he or she is telling it, there's something that gives them away. They're not telling me the truth."(f)
Jonathan Frid |
"Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as “crazy,” we see genius. Because the people who are “crazy” enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do." —Jack Kerouac

"Every lover in his heart a madman and in his head a minstrel." -Neil Gaiman Stardust

from Persistence: All Ways Butch and Femme (Ivan Coyote & Zena Sharman)
"The butch/femme dynamic is a conscious, loving binary of desire and trust; it's a dance of love and outlawed romance. Butches and femmes share a sense of tribe, extended family, and kinship--no matter what our genders might be." Auntie Kate! (Kate Bornstein)

Audre Lorde said:
"When we define ourselves, when I define myself, the place in which I am like you and the place in which I am not like you, I'm not excluding you from the joining--I'm broadening the joining."

My new fave femme... & Ivan Coyote's 'better' half!
"In choosing to look the way I do, I experience a privileged sort of femme invisibility, one that enables me to move through the straight world with relative ease...it seems to me that how femmes experience and respond to this kind of invisibility is as diverse as the range of femme identities. The corollary of femme invisibility is what I think of as strategic visibility, those moments in which we choose to out ourselves. Femmes are chameleons, able to blend in or stand up by standing out. We know when to make our colours burn bright for our chosen mates or as a way to disrupt someone's expectations about what a queer person looks like and when to match the wallpaper." The incredibly fabulous ZENA SHARMAN

and a poem...by Chrystos
Riding in Your Sidekick I slide my hand along your thighs my fingers thrill to the line of your boxers under your levis Suddenly you're standing beside me near our bed your T-shirt & boxers wet with my cunt juice & your delicious I-got-what-I-wanted grin your hand patting my ass which still shivers |
"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." ~Victor Frankl |
"Without accepting the fact that everything changes, we cannot find perfect composure. But unfortunately, although it is true, it is difficult for us to accept it. Because we cannot accept the truth of transience, we suffer." ~Shunryu Suzuki |
"The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind." ~William Blake |
