First off I hope all the guards alright
Ok theres actually a bunch on my mind but instead of saying it I'm going to explain a bunch of my quotes lets see how far I can get before I go insane the 1st will be similiar as they start with mostly love quotes so. .. yea and then are funny quotes so their fun then. . . they start having more of a point, o and
purple italics are the reason ok well have fun.
No love, no friendship can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever. -Francois Mauriac Ok well everything leaves a mark and friendships are usually life altering, even if no one notices, but all friendships leave some mark even if they are forgotten.
An archeologist is the best husband any woman can have; the older she gets, the more interested he is in her. Agatha Christie hehe fun
Where love is, no room is too small. Talmud I like the Talmud plus. . .
To love is to suffer.
To avoid suffering one must not love.
But then one suffers from not loving.
Therefore to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer.
To suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love.
To be happy then is to suffer.
But suffering makes one unhappy
Therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness.
I hope you're getting this down.

“That’s the weirdest bunch of guys I’ve ever met” “ Well who wants normal anyways” Man of the House I'm glad someone agrees with me.
An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates. St. Peter checks his dossier and says, "Ah, you're an engineer -- you're in the wrong place."
So, the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in. Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and building improvements. After awhile, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy.
One day, God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, "So, how's it going down there in hell?"
Satan replies, "Hey, things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."
God replies, "What??? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten down there; send him up here."
Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right. And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?" Heheh

He says, "Well to tell you the truth, I went into a bar, had a few drinks, went home with this blonde and I slept with her." "Let me see your hands!" she demands. He shows his wife his powdery hands.

A guru, rabbi, and lawyer were all traveling to a rather far-off destination. It was quickly approaching full dark and they had yet to find a place to stay for that night. They finally spotted a farmhouse a slight distance away. Beside the farmhouse was a rather large barn. Walking over to the farmhouse, they knocked on the door and asked the farmer if they could room there overnight.
“Sure,” the farmer replied. “But I only can put two of you up in the house. One of you will have to sleep in the barn.”
“I’ll go sleep in the barn,” the rabbi said genially, and so off he went while the other two followed the farmer inside. Ten minutes passed, and the farmer heard a knock on his door. He opened the door to see the rabbi standing there.
“I can’t sleep in your barn,” the rabbi stated flatly. “You have a pig in your barn, and I just can’t sleep under the same roof as a pig.” The guru then volunteered to go sleep in the barn. Ten more minutes passed, and the farmer heard another knock on his door. He opened it to find the guru standing on his doorstep.
“I, too, can’t sleep in your barn,” the guru told him. “You have a cow in your barn, and I can’t sleep under the same roof as a cow.” The farmer looked rather puzzled.
“I’ll go sleep in the barn then,” the lawyer stated cheerfully. The farmer, relieved at the lawyer’s cheerful attitude, closed the door, thinking the problem solved. Ten minutes later however, there was yet another knock on the door. The farmer sighed and opened the door--and found his pig and cow on the doorstep... A nother lawyer joke with the plus of a smart rabbi.
Good

Heathens and savage tribes hold that doctrine; but Christians and civilised nations disown it.’ Jane Eyre P.60 ok fun this is where insults get thrown, "Christians and civilised nations" are the people responcible for the crusades, the constant calling people barbarians, and considering them lesser, imperialism, genocide attempts, should I continue all the while the heathens and savage tribes were the ones that took care of what they had let others believe what they wanted weren't sending children to die in the crusades etc. "“

“And that now I was now left in my natural element, and beginning to feel the stirring of old emotions. It did not seem as if a prop were withdrawn, but rather as if a motive had gone: it was not the power to be tranquil which had failed me, but the reason for tranquility was no more.” Jane Eyre P.93 wow so how I was feeling a little while after Kristin left me. Back to my normal life of being mostly ignored returning to basing everything on logic, and everything else then repeatedly I found that I truly wasn't as much myself as I kept thinking
“The incident had occurred and was gone for me: it was an incident of no moment, no romance, no interest in a sense; yet it marked with change one single hour of a monotonous life.

"It's rock-paper-scissors as to whether
I will get over you at all
It's hand against hand
and both hands are mine
I never thought I'd see the day

And break the stallions of my wildest expectations
But I do not want to know you this way,
surrounded by so much pain
And how am I supposed to let go of you this way?"

You will have to admit that you care."making the crying seem like it has another purpose I have a habit of doing that, if you want somthing to work you have to believe but theres still no guarantee it will work
Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans. " - John Lennon Yea and reminds me of another quote that goes somthing like if you want to make fate laugh tell him your plans, I love that one I just wish I could better remember you can't expect life to go the way you want it to, my life tends to push me around a bit and everytime I resist things get worse , but anyhow,

"I don't need to be wanted...I want to be needed." ok this still falls under post Kristin syndrome, but no ones ever seemed to really want me around like that before so it was hard to want somthing I hadn't really . . .believed possible or cared to think about or somthing like that, anyhow so then afterwards I nearly really attached to a few people, and now I kind of worry if I actually stopped myself from attaching, o well, we'll soon see.
"Perfection, itself, is the biggest flaw." I don't like perfection yet I strive for it too often it is the only place where you can not improve and therefore you can not be good which obviously not good is not perfect, its an endless loop, but anyhow true perfection is entirely intolerant so I don't like it since I'm incredibly protolerance in almost every scenario.
"Some mistakes are too much fun to make only once." I could learn the first time I don't always forget some times its just too much fun
"One of the keys to happiness is a bad memory"ha more of me proving my bad traits keep my happy hahah I laugh at all you with good memories. hehe
"Science has proof without any certainty. Creationists have certainty without any proof." Thats me alright Science, and admiring the Creationalists, but really not liking them to much if that makes any sense.
"Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important." C.S. Lewis the inspiration for the next quote, which will explain why this one is here
Mine
Some religions if right are of infinite importance and if wrong have no importance, other religions, are of infinite importance if right, but if wrong are still deeply important, those are the religions we should seek to find. ummm more life philosophies
“If you want it to work, you have to believe”, unfortunately there’s still no guarantee it will happen, but if you want it to work you still must believe. I could write a 3 page paper on this to explain it but to keep it short, you need to believe in what you want whether it be possible or not
I've created a world. I've created a world I don't live in. I've created a story full of people, full of life, full of places, full of many things.
In my story the characters have a chance to smile. In my story the characters have a chance to succeed. In my story the characters have a chance to live life.
In my story is it right to let them get hurt. In my story is it right to let them take a wrong turn. In my story is it right to let them ruin their lives.
In my story is it fair to give them flaws, is it fair to set them up for failure, is it fair to let them die. Is it fair to have them go through painful trials, just for my amusement, just for the amusement of the readers?
Or should my story have characters that always smile, are always happy, never have anything go wrong. That’s so boring . . .it's just a story what do the characters care, they're not people just imaginary parts in a world I have built. Their lives have no significance and are only there to please us or teach a lesson, so what happens to them, the pain the anguish, the failure, and even the death does not matter.
So . . . who created our world. ummm. . . my how do you know God is all passionate he has no reason to be, live your life and hope he's great, but do things for yourself don't expect him to do miracles for you, answer your prayers or forgive you for everything you've done, make your own miracles, work on your own prayers, and don't expect others to clean up your act. Then if there is a god and he's the one you happen to believe in then maybe things will work out, but how merciful is a god who sends people to hell for not believing in him, thats a bit egotistical don't you think. Sorry for taking shots at relgious foke ecspecially the Christians, but hey I warned you
And to prove I was a real leader, me the shy quiet guy with a loud commanding voice I had some work to do, or in this case the romantic who could do more than stutter I have a lot of work to do, but here goes: There are quotes about just about everything love is loving yourself, life is worthless without love, there aren’t enough starts to mark your greatness, love is missing the flaws, the list goes on, but few truly say what I truly wish to say. So . . . I love when you smile . . . I love knowing I made you happier . . . I love when you have fun with your friends . . . I love hearing you were talking about me . . .
. . I could go on forever beyond the number of quotes I found, beyond the number of stars in the sky, but you probably have class to worry about so c ya later. This was supposed to be edited and then given with some other stuff as a Valentine card, somthing original from me, but umm that didn't work out.
"I would trade lives with you in an instant, not because I hate my life or its miserable, but rather because I love my life and only wish you could experience it too."
Me aka the weird guy me being tired of people not liking there lives so I flat out told someone I felt . . .sorry for?? how I really would have traded places with her to let her see life through my eyes, but at the moment life was as wonderful as it normally was.so it still kind of file a little weird saying it, when life was much worst than normal, but sill sounded better than others.
If a life could be ruined by a single broken heart . . . wouldn't most the world be ruined? You can't think that just because you broke someone's heart their life is ruined. I was bound to have someone else do it sooner or later. The first time will always be the hardest one, after that you're no longer like a newborn baby who finds everything amusing because its new to them, but you’re then a little more ready and hardened, and really u know it will be ok, because the last time it was . . .or so I hope I get that far. Kristin had a post saying she ruined my life so I was thinking how dumb that really was because all though I'm one of the most fragile people ruining a life by breaking up with someone in high school if it were truly half that drastic well, the world would be in trouble, and although my life might be altered, everything even a smile can alter a life and who knows how it will go.
Say What
Ha, you have done it; you have managed to make one of those life-changing marks on a life. , You can never be forgotten. Kristin unkowingly altered my life not just by breaking up with me, but later did somthing that has added a new life philosophy and that will never allow her to be forgotten or so I hope
How come when everything seems to finally fit, everything seems so perfect, I have enough achievements to smile back on and there are things left to fail, but only enough that there’s hope that I can succeed and maybe grow. How come now when everything is almost exactly as I could have wished it am I so miserable?
I was sure of something all along, but they all either weren’t sure or told me I was wrong, so I fought and battled to make it right, but in the end when I finally managed to listen, I learned I was right all along.
There is so much I can say for once so much I was ready for, I finally had the will to act, I finally had the courage to move, but just too late as now that I had it my hands were tied, my lips are sealed, and my movement is frozen. ok from here on out for the rest of say what its mostly me being sad, I had finally planned to make sure I held her hand and i had finally gotten myself to find a way over being so shy but before I got the opportunity 2 days before she broke up with me, I needed two mornings, but one day probably wouldn't have been enough to turn it around anyways.
I miss so much . . .the problem is most of what I miss I still have.
I miss my friends, I miss myself, I miss my life.
I have my friends they never left me, I backed them off a little for someone I have lost, but never told them I found and probably won't find again, but these friends I don't miss for they haven't changed, its the friends I brought closer the friends that weren't mine, the friends I borrowed, the friends I stole, who are still close friends but just not mine for they belong to someone else.
I miss myself the unfeeling guy who paced in a corner, happy when he wanted to be, sad too if he wanted, causing smiles sometimes, and always talking to himself with out a care of sanity. Such long and tried debates with a guarantee of losing, and only small risk of harming others, or even the other guy who talked less to himself and more to another, shy as always but not worried, trying to be the greatest friend always trying to help, always happy and smiling, the saddest thing for him was others misery. I miss him too, if only I could have one of them back but no I get neither.
I miss my life; yet I still live; my future is not ruined. It rather seems a dream to most including me who see it, but I like the old one better it was only me I harmed, and I didn't have to worry about others most the time. I didn't have the guilt of making others miserable, I miss my old life but what is there to do other than starting to like my new one.
Well for now good-bye and smile all another post that can be seen from me to all who care to read
2/5/05 felt pretty miserable and like no one cared, and I really missed her liking me, I really wanted that back and so on knowing I couldn't have that back I thought of everything else I missed, and realized I had most of it. I just coulnd't enjoy it anymore
I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish I wish
I wish I could hit publish I wish I could . . . I wish I would if only one sentence if only one word if only a letter or even a number, if I was only allowed to type a symbol or a slash, or if it were only an underscore I wish I could . . . post it I wish I could IM it, I wish I could email it I wish I could say it, but all I can do is think it, I'm not allowed to say, not till she says I can say, but I fear when she says it . . .it will be to late.
A comment that never could be posted 2/5/05 5:34pm We made a deal to ignore each other or somthing like that so I took it to far and literal and thought she meant all together of course I couldn't ignore her but I could not do anything to make ignoring me any more difficult so since I couldn't talk to her I typed that up on the comment and then really wanted to say anything to her I missed her and she still hasn't said the it at the end and I'm pretty confident she never will although it had two meanings and she did say one but it really do to much I can now talk to her again. . .yay
Love is the most selfish emotion, it makes you forgot about all others, all else, all needs in an effort to fill that burning whole left by love. I used to be so selfless caring almost nothing for myself, always wanting others to succeed holding doors open when I could be that first class gentleman to always help out, but then love hit me on the head. After that others didn’t matter all I wanted was to fulfill that spot of love to make it stop hurting, to feel the warmth again, all I wanted was to make it work, but in the hope of following love, I only held the door half heartedly I stopped worrying about them, with only one thing in mind . . . Love, the most selfish emotion. 2/5/05 5:57pm more frustration and after thinking about it I decided love was the most selfish emotion and tried to write somthing on it and that was the attempt at it.
A single tear a solitary tear, is all I give to the outside world,
A single tear from my right eye sits upon my face,
A single tear I wipe away,
A single tear returns.
I thought I was thinking of just the roofers above my head but,
I don't think I would lose a tear just for them so,
I thought maybe it was for the sleep I lost,
I went to bed early but got little sleep,
For last night I went to bed, at 9 but was wide awake till 11 still actively thinking,
For this morning I was up at 4:15 eating breakfast starving for some sad reason,
For myself I thought till 5:15 before thinking of sleeping and then,
For waking up I was up by 7 with a single tear, a solitary tear
Then I sat and thought for an hour maybe longer who really cares,
Then I turned the tv on not thinking any more,
Then I witnessed a Valentine's commercial,
Then I had a tear a solitary tear sitting upon my left eye
Now my single solitary tear is gone, the one and only one,
Now I'm typing this knowing no one will see it,
Now I'm back to me, wondering who cares,
Finally I’m done, It no longer continues.?
from me to her who I dare not tell
2/5/05 more me missing her I was actually crying I don't do that much, and it was weird there was always one tear and when I wiped it away there would be one more tear, and it was while listening to people hammer on the roof even weirder and I didn't conciously think about her till the tear was in my eye. It was weird, and the end question was a very bad attempt at a few things one as one of those techniques meant to use a change in pace to leave a big impact, and two to show my that I wanted it to continue but doubted it did, both the poem and somthing more.
Sad
We enjoy warmth because we have been cold.
We appreciate light because we have been in darkness.
By the same token, we can experience joy because we have known sadness.
-David Weatherford good can't exist without the bad, we call one good because of what we know of the other.
A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic.
-Joseph Stalin So sad but in todays world so true
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course.
Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Jung good can't exist without the bad, we call one good because of what we know of the other.
When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.
-Winston Churchill sadly my life was heading that way, Kristin was one of those correctional tracks even if it did take some pulling tugging, and then leaving me on that tract was the hardest and most painful part , but hey thanks
Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember and be sad.
-Christina Georgina Rossetti I don't know if I believe this one I've forgotten and smiled a lot its rare for me to do the other one my memory just doens't remember much and the little it does choose is usually not the stuff it finds to be most painful, but honestly I would rather remember, and know all I am and all I was than be happy for the moment with out knowing who I am
A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary.
Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.
-Albert Einstein Although I believe it should be empathy not sympathy, I believe more or less what he's saying and believe more people should see this and think this way, yet personally I believe a relgious basis although not necessary can help, but the fear of an afterlife should not be how it helps nor should the superiority factor be a part of it.
Hating people is like burning down your house to kill a rat
-Henry Fosdick I think I understood this wrong when I took it , so I'll give why I originally got it originally I thought it meant hating a single person is like burning down your house and I thought that was a pretty good way to think of it since you hate them on some qualities yet you miss all the miracles of what there here for most likely there is somthing. anyhow now I realize its don't hate everyone because a few people are idiots.
In solitude, where we are least alone
-Lord Byron my life story, do you know how many conversatons I've had with myself, in fact I once had a teacher that went anc corrected out class your not crazy if you talk to yourself in fact that can even be healthy its when you ask yourself questions and answer them that your crazy, well I do that too.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
-Helen Keller A powerful quote to me coming from someone who's been through much of both, live on and get through the suffering
We ignore the ones who adore us, and adore the ones who ignore us.
-Anonymous post Kristin syndrome although I somewhat believed it before then too, but as of recently I heard somthing that may make me rethink this.
How do I say goodbye to what we had, the good times that made us laugh outweigh the bad, I thought we'd get to see forever, but forevers gone away - it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday
-Anonymous More strongly seen because of Kristin but my life story my fears in life almost all fall along this line
A man is called selfish, not for pursuing his own good, but for neglecting the neighbor's.
-Richard Whately this is why I'm not considered selfish, for I make sure my good is my neighbors and rather think thats a good strategy for the world, but people really do have a bad definition of selfish and usually its selfish fun, fun, fun

Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together. ~Author Unknown I kind of took two sides one don't try and forget to make the pain go away thats more painful, which is not really what it meant, and two is the opposite one of those quotes I have to remind me of how much I don't believe it I don't think pain should be a reason to let things fail. Pain is merely an indicatoi somthing is wrong and as long as you know what it is, thats what you should pay attention to not the pain itself

That was rough.... Thing to do now is try and forget it.... I guess I don't quite mean that. It's not a thing you can forget. Maybe not even a thing you want to forget.... Life's like that sometimes... Now and then for no good reason a man can figure out, life will just haul off and knock him flat, slam him agin' the ground so hard it seems like all his insides is busted. But it's not all like that. A lot of it's mighty fine, and you can't afford to waste the good part frettin' about the bad. That makes it all bad.... Sure, I know - sayin' it's one thing and feelin' it's another. But I'll tell you a trick that's sometimes a big help.
