Bio"Be happy. It's one way of being wise."
-Colette
"The dust in our eyes our own boots kicked up
Heartsick we nursed along the way we picked up
We may not see it when it's sticking to our skin
But we're better off for all that we let in."
- Emily Saliers
"Turn the wheel of your life. Make complete revolutions. Celebrate every turning. And persevere with joy."
-Deng Ming-Dao, Writer
"I just feel tired of everything sensible and I'm going to let my imagination run riot for the summer."
- Anne of Green Gables
time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time.
--T.S. Eliot
the wide world spins and spits turmoil and the nations toil for peace
- Emily Saliers
"Ninety-nine percent of failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses."
-George Washington Carver
"The key to understanding is listening with the eyes and the heart."
-Steven R. Covey
"I do know my own mind; the problem is, my mind changes, and then I have to get reacquainted with it all over again."
- L.M. Montgomery
And I wish her insight to battle love’s blindness
Strength from the milk of human kindness
A safe place for all the pieces that scattered
Learn to pretend there’s more than love that matters
- Emily Saliers
"To believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest."
-Mohandas K. Gandhi
"The worst sin toward our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them. That's the essence of inhumanity."
-George Bernard Shaw
"It is never too late to be what you might have been."
-George Eliot
but I've forgotten my lines and I've misplace my cues, and there's a sea full of faces and a show to go on, and I'm struck mute at entrance with nothing to draw from
"Impossibility is temporary!"
I am sorry that I set my sights on the things I read
- Amy Ray
"And then I heard the winds flowing
Listened to the words that they bespeak
They said that those that are aware
Of a cause worth fighting, dying
That which saves them from all that's bleak
Their conviction gives strength to dare."
- Rebekkah Crim
Find something for which you are willing to give your life, that you can believe in passionately over a lifetime."
- Don E. Saliers
Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God.
