Quote_tiny Annie added a quote:
"For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us."Charles Bukowski
Quote_tiny Annie added a quote:
"Do you hate people?

I don't hate them...I just feel better when they're not around."
Charles Bukowski
Quote_tiny Annie added a quote:
"The world, even the smallest parts of it, is filled with things you don't know."Sherman Alexie
Quote_tiny Annie added a quote:
"That was the year, my twenty-eighth, when I was discovering that not all of the promises would be kept, that some things are in face irrevocable and that it had counted after all, every eveasion and every procrastination, every mistake, every word, all of it."Joan Didion

Shivering and sighing.
And he vows his passion is,
Infinite, undying.
Lady make note of this --
One of you is lying."
Dorothy Parker
