A life without cause is a life without effect. ~Barbarella

Who knows where inspiration comes from. Perhaps it arises from desperation. Perhaps it comes from the flukes of the universe, the kindness of the muses. ~ Amy Tan

Words to me were magic. You could say a word and it could conjure up all kinds of images or feelings or a chilly sensation or whatever. It was amazing to me that words had this power. ~ Amy Tan

"The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see Nature all ridicule and deformity, and some scarce see Nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, Nature is Imagination itself." - William Blake, 1799, The Letters |
"I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do." - Willa Cather (1873-1947), O Pioneers 1913 |
“To live in this world, you must be able to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go” - Mary Oliver |
Lyrics from Natasha Bedingfield...
"Drench yourself in words unspoken Live your life with arms wide open Today is where your book begins The rest is still unwritten" |
It's not men who limit women, it's not straights who limit gays, it's not whites who limit blacks. What limits people is lack of character. What limits people is that they don't have the fucking nerve or imagination to star in their own movie, let alone direct it.

Brava, Semantics...........thanks for posting this! |
"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."
— C.S. Lewis (The Four Loves) |
The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.
-Frank Lloyd Wright |
Life needs mystery or else everything else flattens into a routine
so familiar you wonder if you will ever get out of the rut. We need the sweet pain of anticipation to tell us we are really alive. Dave Kindred |
“I want to have fun. I want to shine like the sun. I want to be the one that you want to see. I want to knit you a sweater. I want to write you a love letter. I want to make you feel better. I want to make you feel free.”
--Joni Mitchell _______________ |
"We can't take any credit for our talents. It's how we use them that counts." ~ Madeline L'Engle

An Irish Blessing for...
St. Patrick's Day!
May you always have Walls for the winds, A roof for the rain, Tea beside the fire, Laughter to cheer you, Those you love near you, And all your heart might desire! |
It's not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned; and not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity.
~Francis Bacon, Sr. |
If you're lucky enough to be Irish, then you're lucky enough.
~Irish Saying |
It is easy to be pleasant
when life flows by like a song, but the one worthwhile is the one who will smile when everything goes dead wrong. For the test of the heart is trouble, and it always comes with years, and the smile that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through the tears. ~Irish Saying |
"All rivers, even the most dazzling, those that catch the sun in their course, all rivers go down to the ocean and drown. And life awaits man as the sea awaits the river." - Simone Schwarz-Bart |
"There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in." - Deepak Chopra |
